Turkey: The Mediterranean Sea
Departs: May, Jun, Sep, Cost: $2,990 + $270 flight Length: 10 days	Turkey's Turquoise Coast is a paddler's paradise: crystalline seas that shimmer blue-green in the sun, rocky cliffs rising into a cobalt sky, a mountain backdrop blanketed in fragrant pine, assorted islands and inlets inviting discovery, and fishing villages where life proceeds languidly. Nature and history are married in harmony here where human habitation can be traced back millennia. The region abounds with ruins of ancient Lycian cities founded by the Greeks in the 3rd and 4th centuries BC, and we spend time ashore exploring their crumbling remains, castle ramparts, and massive rock tombs cut into the cliffs. Turkey has it all: stunning nature, rich history, fine food, fabulous wine and glorious weather. There's no better way to discover this seductive coast in the southwest of Turkey than by sea kayak.

We've figured out all the great kayaking spots over the years and our adventure includes the fabulous Sermiliq/Tassilaq Fjord complex in Eastern Greenland. Without exception all our previous co-explorers have loved this area. On our summer expedition you can join a small group of adventurers who will paddle and hike Greenland's most remote and wild eastern coast, visiting local Inuit communities and camping. Few know that Greenland's Eastern fjords have some of the best kayaking conditions in the Arctic, where protective high mountains tower over deep fjords below. Plus the landscape and arctic wildlife is both beautiful and diverse. There is no other place like it on earth.
