Hey! Many thanks for your input. Appreciated. Can;t wait check it out.
The idea is to spend two week on the island. Kayaking is the main activity. We are looking for some river running at Class 4/4+/maybe some 5 (depends on how we feel). Also some trekking whild camping at the vulcanoe's & glacier area.
The season is late August (the ferry is cheaper in the off-season).
We are gonna bring bus with us and drive it around.
That's about it.
Thanks again!
