For my summer work term I moved to Prince Edward Island to work as a Sea Kayak guide at Outside Expeditions in North Rustico. You can visit their website at: http://www.getoutside.com/
I had many roles at Outside Expeditions. I often ran the office this entailed answering phone calls and emails, selling kayaks and other merchandise, scheduling trips and delivering waivers.
We provided many bike rentals; I maintained bikes and set up clients with proper safety equipment.
I was the social media coordinator for the summer as well; I did Facebook and Twitter updates, I also started an Instagram account for the company. I was responsible for doing multiple social media updates each week.
Sea Kayak guiding for Outside Expeditions involved risk management of clients around the boat lanes, nature interpretation and historical lessons about the island.
Outside Expeditions runs three trips:
-1h Beginner Bay tour
-2h Cavendish Coves tour
-3h Harbor Passage tour
In total I logged 65 trips throughout the summer
