They will make sure all passengers know the basics, from how to properly hold a paddle, to proper usage of the lifejackets that are provided. In addition, certified instructors will make sure each person understands proper safety protocols when during their time on the water. With certified instructors at the helm, you can be sure to relax and enjoy your wonderful kayaking experience!
Inland coastal waterway tides, enjoying the scenery at the right time of day.
Kayaking along an inland coastal waterway can be a tranquil experience, but you’ll want to be sure to plan your journey at the right tide. Depending on your kayaking skill level, whether you are a beginner or have advanced paddling experience, there is a time of day that will suit your needs best. Kayakers with more experience should time their trip when the tide is receding and those in training should opt to stick with the incoming tide so they are pushed along rather than combating against the currents. Either way, timing the tides correctly can help to enhance your Kayak experience ten-fold; plus, you’ll get to enjoy breathtaking scenery in safe conditions.
Kayaking with friends and family for lifelong memories
Kayaking with friends and family can be a hugely rewarding experience. It’s the perfect way to create lifelong memories that you’ll both treasure for years to come. Kayak adventures provide the opportunity for them to bond and share an unforgettable experience outdoors in nature. Kayaks are easy for beginners, so no matter what everyone’s individual skill level is, you’re guaranteed an exciting journey. You get to sail through mesmerizing waters, uncover hidden spots that only kayakers have access to while sometimes even encountering wildlife along the way – all while surrounded by your loved ones who make it a uniquely special Kayak adventure. Not many things quite compare!
