Lost Coast of Gabon: Sea Kayaking West Africa (DVD)

A kayak trip like no other: paddling and portaging more than 200 miles around the perimeter of Loango national park in Gabon. Are you ready for elephants, tarpons, surfing hippos' An eye-opener of a paddling trip.

Heliconia's expedition film takes sea kayaks to the Atlantic coast of Gabon in West Africa. Over a route of more than 200 miles, the paddlers circle Loango National Park by water and portage, sharing beaches and lagoons with wildlife that few kayakers ever see from the cockpit.

It is a travel and adventure documentary, not a skills course, and suits sea kayakers, wildlife lovers and anyone drawn to remote coastal expeditions. The setting makes it an unusual addition to a paddling film library.
