Sunset Explorer
Our Most Popular Tour – The Golden Time on the Water
There’s a moment in the evening when everything softens.
The wind settles.
The birds shift.
The water turns to glass.
That’s when we launch.
Our Sunset Lake Explorer paddle takes you through the still-water creek toward The Forks, and out into the open lagoon just as the sky begins its quiet show. The dunes catch the last light. Eagles cross in silhouette. The lagoon reflects it all.
It’s calm — but never dull.
Peaceful — but full of life.
This is where the “ahh” lives.
Some sunsets you watch from shore.
This one, you experience as you float inside it.
Magic.

The Real Magic? Your Guide.
Each tour is led by either Heather or Jarrod, the owners of Nature Space — and whichever one you get, you’re in exceptionally capable hands.
Heather is a veterinarian and ecologist who blends science, storytelling, and wild curiosity. You’ll see birds, fish, and landscapes through an entirely new lens — without it ever feeling like a lecture.
Jarrod is a former provincial oyster biologist and a world-class sea kayaker. He brings deep marine knowledge, serious paddling expertise, and a calm confidence on the water that makes everyone feel like a natural.
Different flavour. Same world-class experience.
There are lots of kayaking tours out there.
There are not lots of tours led by people with this depth of knowledge and experience.

With respect to weather, we watch the forecasts closely and will be in communication if anything needs to change based on the weather. We will still go for a paddle in overcast conditions or with light showers/drizzle. If it’s heavy rain or heavy wind, we will cancel the tour. We typically make weather decisions ~24 hours prior to the tour, as the weather can change at the last minute. If we need to cancel due to weather, we will fully refund your tour deposit.
