Dr. Scott Cunningham is a biologist and sea kayaker who has explored the Atlantic coast by canoe and sea kayak for three decades. In the summer of 1980 he circumnavigated the entire coastline of Nova Scotia in an open canoe, and in 1982 he established the guide service Coastal Adventures. He has written extensively of his experiences in articles for outdoor magazines and books depicting the region and has published Sea Kayaking in Nova Scotia; A Detailed Route Guide (2000). Cunningham has also been instrumental in promoting sea kayaking standards and has recently developed CanadaŐs first national sea kayaking program for Paddle Canada (formerly the Canadian Recreational Canoeing Association). He was the first Senior Instructor Trainer for the CRCA and former chair of the SK Program Development Committee. He is also a Coach 4 (sea) with the British Canoe Union and has paddled extensively Germany, France, and Great Britain.
