G.A. Guides was founded by Jason "Kiwi" Goldstein (the current owner) resume here to provide a higher quality Instruction & Guide Service for Kayakers. We teach or guide only one or two clients at a time in the Pacific Northwest, and beyond. This allows us to cater exclusively to meet your needs, and lessons our effect on the environment.

Nor do we intend to grow. Instead, GA guides acts as a Kayak Broker and forms strategic alliances with the worlds best kayak outfitters. We add an additional element of safety and security on these international trips. Whether your paddling in tropical Fiji amongst the turtles and flying fish, or exploring sea caves and swells along the Napali Coast, Hawaii - we will be with you sharing unforgettable adventures. Check out these International trips on the left side of our web page. If you reside in WA State we have many kayak trips and private instruction that suit beginner to advanced paddlers. Check our Tours in WA & Instruction in WA pages.

Why utilize GA Guides? Its simple, we are committed to your safety and hold certifications as: Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician, and Kayak Instruction & rescue certifications as ACA Open Coastal, and Swift water Rescue & Rope Rescue trained. Our latest training covers Incident Management on the water, so we are prepared.

GA Guides is also committed to raising an awareness and funds for charity, specifically Juvenile Arthritis. Every year or two a sponsored expedition is born to meet these needs. Click on Expeditions at left for more info.
