Showcasing some of the world’s most sought after sea kayaking destinations, “Pacific Horizons” inspires one to get out and go kayaking! Blending wildlife, people, places and action packed kayaking, Bryan Smith takes us on an unforgettable journey documenting impressive tidal race surfing, the Orca whales of the San Juan Islands, the Bunsby Islands off Vancouver Island’s remote and wild west coast, “commando kayaking“ with Greenland rolling and ropes gymnastics champion Dubside, the wind and waves of Oregon’s coast and Columbia River Gorge, and record setting circumnavigation of Vancouver Island. “Pacific Horizons” is an entertaining, breath-taking, and inspirational adventure film.

Bryan Smith is an adventure filmmaker and expedition kayaker based out of Squamish, British Columbia. His involvement in the paddling industry spans both the sea and whitewater realms. He built an impressive set of credentials on the sea through the British Canoe Union and went on to co-found Body Boat Blade International Sea Kayaking School. Paddling first descents on steep, difficult rivers has taken him all over the world including Peru, India, British Columbia and Washington. He has produced many short whitewater action videos under his production company “Reel Water Productions” for his both on-line magazine “therangelife.com” and “Lunch Video Magazine”. At age 32 Smith, assisted by his wife Lise-Anne, is in the early stages of what promises to be a great adventure filmmaking career.
