Our Mission
Our primary mission is to provide a safe and memorable kayaking experience that showcases nature’s beauty and character. Your safety is our number one priority. We limit the size of our tours to ensure you receive individualized attention, can ask questions, socialize and enjoy the natural surroundings. We use high quality, clean, well maintained and safe equipment
Deb will help you find the activity that best fits your needs. We engage with you to discover what most interests you and thrills you, listen to concerns you may have, learn about any special needs and suggest activities based on that information. Our communication with you is ongoing – before the booking, during the activity and afterward – to be sure we’ve given you the best outdoor experience. Our commitment to your safety and the highest quality of service is what sets Blueway Adventures apart from others.
