🌊🧘‍♀️ Imagine waking up on an island in the middle of Lake Superior…
Coffee brewing. Waves rolling onto the shore. Eagles overhead. A morning yoga session before loading kayaks and exploring the sea caves and wild beauty of the Apostle Islands.

Our 4-Day Yoga & Meditation Kayak Retreat is more than just a trip — it’s a chance to unplug, reconnect, and slow down long enough to actually breathe again.

Over 4 days and 3 nights, you’ll learn sea kayaking and kayak camping skills while joining guided yoga and meditation practices led by Jodi Supanich of the Washburn Meditation Center. Expect island campsites, incredible food, campfires, mindfulness, laughter, and the kind of reset only wilderness can provide.

✨ Explore sea caves, lighthouses, beaches & hidden island camps
✨ Small-group experience in the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

After a particularly harrowing kayaking trip as a first year guide I told this joke:
-----------------------------
A Frenchman, an Englishman, and a New Yorker were captured by a fierce Indian tribe. The chief comes to them and says, “The bad news is that now that we’ve caught you, we’re going to kill you, and then use your skins to build a kayak. The good news is that you get to choose how you die."

The Frenchman says, “I take ze poison.” The chief gives him some poison, the Frenchman says, “Vive la France!” and drinks it down.

The Englishman says, “A pistol for me, please.” The chief gives him a pistol, he points it at his head, says, “God save the queen!” and, well, you know...

The New Yorker says “Gimme a fork.” The chief is puzzled, but he shrugs and gives him a fork. The New Yorker takes the fork and starts jabbing himself all over. There’s blood everywhere, it’s horrible.

The chief is appalled, and screams, “What are you doing???” The New Yorker looks at the chief and says, “So much for your stinking kayak!”
----------------------------------
Whether it be staying safe from fierce tribes or big waves our 4 day Coastal Kayak Skills course will help keep you out of trouble.
