  Lisa Yoder



Lisa Yoder started out in a 10-foot, plastic rec boat and quickly advanced to sea kayak adventures with a local club due to their training and experience opportunities. She has kayak-camped the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior, Everglades 10,000 Islands area, South Manitou in Lake Michigan, and Cayo Costa off Florida. She has spent most of her sea kayaking time in the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Michigan. In 2019, she and another Indiana paddler traveled to Milos, Greece, to do a 9-day paddling adventure in the Aegean Sea. The experience was so fantastic, she and her paddling partner gathered a group of 13 Midwestern paddlers and returned in 2023 for the group adventure of a lifetime. The group consisted of both high-level, experienced paddlers who wanted as much waves and rock gardening as possible alongside paddlers who wanted a calm-water, relaxed, adventure in the beautiful turquoise-blue waters of the Aegean. Both kinds of paddlers experienced exactly the trip of their choice each day all while paddling together.

 Paddling Greece: Learn How To Do Adventure Paddling Trips
Algonquin - main floor Fri 3:30pm-4:15pm 
Do you long to do adventure paddling but aren’t comfortable planning a big-water trip? Paddling with a quality outfitter bridges the gap between skills and adventure, as well as allowing both high-level and less-experienced paddlers to share the adventure together. Learn how to choose a quality outfitter as well as how to do an overseas trip alone or with a paddling group through the profiled 9-day paddling trip in Milos, Greece, (2023) with 13 Midwestern paddlers.
