Paradise Found The Island World of Raja Ampat • In the northwest tip of Southwest Papua, Indonesia, lies a Karst archipelago that just might be paradise on Earth for paddle sports lovers. The islands of Raja Ampat are covered in lush jungle and surrounded by clear blue water, friendly seas, and stunning bays filled with marine life and rock formations that feel more fantasy than reality. It wasn’t an easy journey, but for Michael Neumann, this sea kayaking trip would top any bucket list.

WHERE TWO OCEANS MEET A journey into finding your Sea kayak adventure in Cape Town, South Africa • In Cape Town, South Africa, the land meets the sea in a dramatic sweep of rock and water. The area surrounding the Cape is home to a convergence of currents and cultures.

SALT & GELATO Cinque Terre by Sea Kayak • Jens Klatt isn’t your typical tourist to Cinque Terre. Instead of a suitcase and plans to hike from each of the five villages, Jens, Olaf Obsommer, and their friends Ingrid and Babsi have folding kayaks on their backs and a route that will take them along the famous coast of the Italian Riviera, traveling not by land but by sea.
