Experience gifts make excellent gift ideas to celebrate anniversaries because these create lasting memories. Plus, an experience gift that takes you to an adventure with nature is something that will breathe fresh air into your relationship.

Celebrate Milestones with Watersports Gifts

A friend or a sibling is celebrating a birthday and you are thinking of birthday gift ideas?

Someone close to you just got a promotion and you want to give him or her a gift?

Let your fingers do the looking and the shopping by giving a watersports adventure experience gift.

When you give a watersports adventure experience gift, you do not only give someone a present but a memory. Experience gifts create lasting memories that the receiver will treasure forever. By giving a watersports adventure as a gift, the receiver will also learn and experience something new and he or she will remember you as the one who introduced him or her to whatever adventure you give.

Here are some watersports adventures that you can give as a present to celebrate a milestone:

A Learn to Kayak in a Day experience gift is the perfect present for someone who has not tried the sport. The experience includes introduction to the gears used in the sport, as well as an introduction to the marine chart, an important tool for kayak navigation.

A Windsurfing Lesson Half Day is another great experience gift for someone celebrating a special day. The experience includes instruction on the equipment how to rig a sail, how to keep balance while on board and how to control the direction of the board and sail.

Learning to sail a keelboat is another great experience gift. The experience is a three-hour learning adventure aboard a Harbour 20 Keelboat with a professional instructor from the Canadian Yachting Association. The experience, as well as the backdrop of the adventure is sure to impress the receiver.
Yacht sailing lessons on a chartered 28’ sailing yacht is surely an unforgettable experience gift. The experience includes private lessons with a professional skipper while cruising the English Bay. The view of the Vancouver skyline and the Coastal Mountain Range will truly make learning how to sail even more exciting.

Unforgettable Helicopter Adventures

Flying on an airplane is nothing new, especially for those who frequently travel by air. But flying on a helicopter is an opportunity that not everyone can enjoy easily.

Give someone – a friend, family member or a special someone – that unique experience of flying in a helicopter by giving him or her an unforgettable helicopter adventure experience gift.

The gift will surely be something that the receiver will remember for a long time and you, the giver, will forever be remembered as the coolest gift giver.

What helicopter adventure experiences can you give as a gift? Here are a few:

The tour gives the receiver the best view of the Cline Glacier and the helicopter will also fly close by a 900-foot waterfall.

Riding a helicopter as a passenger is exciting alright, but the adventure does not stop there. Take the experience gift a notch higher by giving a Helicopter Flying Lesson!
