Outside with Ryan Snoddon: sea kayaking

Ryan Snoddon goes for a paddle with Stan Cook Jr. of the famed sea kayaking business.

Sea stars, fresh sea urchin snacks and the clear waters off Cape Broyle


Stan Cook Sea Kayak Adventures is legendary in Newfoundland tourism. The family-run eco-tour company, founded by Stan Cook Sr., has been leading tours by kayak in beautiful Cape Boyle for decades.

In this episode of Outside, Ryan Snoddon joins Stan Cook Jr. to paddle out along the sheltered arm in Cape Broyle, where it's not unusual to encounter whales and porpoises. They explore sea caves, pluck sea stars from the cave walls and — the pièce de résistance for every Stan Cook trip — snack on sea urchin, fresh from the bottom.
