Kayaking Into Fjords Within Fjords

The deep “finger fjords” within the large Fjordo Comau in southern Chile are a kayakers paradise. At the end of each fjord are estuaries with lush vegetation and where trout jump fast and furiously as the fresh water meets the ocean. We spent a few days paddling around the area (partially in the spectacular Parque Pumalin), and on one lucky stretch got a tailwind and sailed to the end of the fjord as the tide was rising.
