Liverpool Adventure Outfitters Ltd. opened in April 2003 as a small shop focused mainly on canoeing and kayaking, with a small selection of camping accessories. We had so much space that we had some tents set up inside our shop. Over the years, we have expanded to include bicycles, camping gear, clothing, accessories, and a full service bicycle repair shop. We are now bursting at the seams, and while we still have tents available for purchase, we would be hard-pressed to find a space in our shop to set any of them up! In addition to our store, we also offer kayaking, canoeing, biking, standup paddleboarding, and multi-sport adventures on the South Shore of Nova Scotia and other locations such as Belize and Costa Rica. We continue to add to our tour offering each year, and love helping people enjoy the beautiful outdoors! Our staff are certified standup paddleboard instructors, kayaking instructors, and canoe instructors.
