25 years of Katabatik aventure dans Charlevoix

It all kicked off in 2001 with the construction of a a number of  wooden kayaks at Cap-à-l’aigle; this year, Katabatik celebrates 25 years in the outdoors! That’s 25 years of gleaming sea kayaks and guided excursions leaving from different piers and beaches in the greater ­Charlevoix area. The company, founded and led by Sébastien Savard since its inception, also offers descents of the Gouffre River, canyoning, ­winter kayaking, paddle surfing, and bike rentals… 
Now operating from the wharf in Baie-Saint-Paul and the beach in Saint-Irénée,  the ecotourism adventure company is readying itself for a celebratory 2025, culminating with the Pagaies en Fête [Paddle party] on July 5, featuring a river descent open to everyone, free kayaking workshops in the bay, and entertainment, including a DJ set, bouncy structures, and other surprises… 
By way of a birthday gift, a new excursion will be offered this season, going in search of weir fishing, in the Cap-aux-Oies area. Then, we’ll head back to where it all started, with the return of the Gros Cap-à-l’Aigle excursion. 
To your paddles, your package tours, and your season’s passes, discover the waves safely with the team at Katabatik - Aventure dans ­Charlevoix… Most of all, be sure to remember to wish them a happy ­birthday!
