North Coast Adventure Centers Inc. - Connecting the North Coast, one adventure at a time

NCAC is structured as a employee-owned corporation, a CO-OP model.  This means that most of our departments are run by employee owners and the organization's decisions are being made locally by activity experts.  We currently have 6 official members of our CO-OP but there are numerous staff that are waiting for their probationary year to be up so they can join through "sweat equity" or a cash buy-in.

National Geographic's November article on Redwoods highlighted Humboldt's natural and unique beauty, http://www.nationalgeographic.com/redwoods.  We are moving toward success with this goal by training people in a variety of adventures and sending them out to work throughout the world.  We are also attracting tourists to come to the area and stay longer by offering outdoor tours.

NCAC strives to partner with the best guides, naturalists, and organizations to serve the North Coast outdoor community.

What We Do:

One of our goals in to help shape Humboldt as an adventure destination.  We do that through three main areas of focus:

Tours: Canopy, The Big Rappel/Rock Climbing, Eco-Tours, Rafting, International Trips, and Kayaking

Retreats:  Business, School, Non-profit, Portable Rock Wall, Ropes Course, Mechanical Bull, and general team-building programs
