  • "I did the AOG with Cass and Jasper. You're in for a treat if you decide to do this program. I got a lot out of it... way more than I expected. I found it to be quite well organized and generosity (sharing snacks, gear) was continuous throughout. I really enjoyed the group meals, debrief circles, and the push to challenge myself. This is incredible work and I look forward to recommending the course to my friends. Cheers, hope to see you all on the coast!"

    Sam - Kayak Guide Course

  • "This was my child’s second year for the kayak camp and she loved it even more this year than last. They’re so knowledgeable and just amazing people all around! We look forward to future camps!"

    Melissa - Parent of Camper

  • "Amazing weekend spent with the Metis Nation in partnership with CCA. The guides are extremely knowledgeable, kind, and passionate about the sport of surfing & the environment. Every meal was delicious and made with so much care, every evening was finished with a group reflection. Really felt like community (the homemade granola bars were a 10/10 also!)"

    Adria - Group Program

  • "Fantastic, knowledgeable, and experienced instructors with a contagious passion and energy that was inspiring. I can't recall the last time I learned so much in one week, and on top of that enjoying the gorgeous classroom of the great outdoors. Highly recommended!"

    Alegria - Kayak Guide Course

  • "I took the level one guide course happening in Quadra Island in April 2026 with Jasper and Cass. I was nervous because I had barely experience kayaking but the instructors were very patient and kind to teach me everything from the beginning. This course is beyond kayaking because I could learn things about weather, navigation and more, that I can use in my everyday. This course was challenging for sure, but was a super positive experience which I highly recommend! Thanks 💜"

    Tatiana - Kayak Guide Course

  • "2 summers past and going strong my kids have been going to the surf camp. An amazing experience and fabulous instructors! Memories that truly will last forever in their childhood experiences ❤️ Thank you for another amazing trip in nature with new friends!!!"

    Carly - Parent of Camper

  • "My daughter has attended surf camp for 2 summers now and absolutely loved it. Such a great mix of activities, independence and adventure. She is no big surfer by any means, but gets out there, learns a lot, tries some waves, builds confidence, makes friends, and has fun. I love the forced break from their electronics too! She is already looking forward to next year - thank you Jasper and Carissa for this amazing camp 🙏"
