History
Cal Adventures was established in 1979 within the Department of Recreational Sports as the Outdoor Education Program at UC Berkeley. The program began with land based programs including backpacking and climbing. In 1982, with support from the Department of Boating and Waterways, the program opened the Boating Center in the Berkeley Marina where we still operate safe boating educational programs to this day. More recently Cal Adventures began offering team building and ropes course programs in addition to adventure based activities.
