Sea Kayaking Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay
“The book, in readable, narrative style, consists of the authors’ 30 favorite day paddles. Their nicely chosen list visits virtually all of Maryland’s tidewater counties, with 13 paddles on the western shore and 17 on the Eastern Shore.”
–Tom Horton, The Baltimore Sun, “At the Water’s Edge,” August 29, 2004

Sea Kayaking Virginia

Nolan, an Annapolis sea kayaking guide and instructor, has spent a great deal of time venturing into little known niches of the Chesapeake Bay and its labyrinth of ancillary waterways.”
–Paul Sullivan, The Free Lance-Star, Fredericksburg, VA, Saturday, December 2, 2006
