THE ATLANTIC COAST is one of the world's most exciting new destinations for sea kayakers.  In Paddling in Paradise, Alison Hughes shares her passion for a sport that, in these waters, offers both serenity and the thrill of a lifetime.  Off the shores of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland, she carries readers along on glorious multi-day trips.  Some are beautiful nature paddles that beginners will dream about for the rest of their lives, while others will test experienced sea kayakers and their guides.  With photos, maps, and travel information, Paddling in Paradise is pure enchantment for adventurers and dreamers alike.

Alison Hughes was a prize-winning marathon canoeist before she discovered sea kayaking.  A photojournalist specializing in outdoor adventure, she has published numerous stories in the New Brunswick Telegraph Journal, the Ottawa Citizen, the Vancouver Sun, and magazines including Kanawa, Canoe & Kayak, and Adventure Kayak.  She enjoys high tide sea kayaking from her home on Passamaquoddy Bay, ear the Bay of Fundy.
