Cycles and kayaks can be rented from many of these
shops and guiding and instruction are often available. These outlets
are also the best place to acquire critical local knowledge on the
areas wildlife, trials, kayak routes and conditions.
The islands also have their share of outdoor clubs
and associations which maintain trails and work as advocates to ensure
that sports and nature areas are kept open to enthusiasts. Many of the
trials, parks and recreational areas have been set aside because of the
tireless work of these groups. Make a point of pitching in with some
volunteer work, or perhaps a donation, to ensure that the their efforts
can continue.
