Full Day Intro to Kayaking
Advertisement
Designed for complete beginners or those looking for a refresher, this class covers the fundamentals of kayaking.
The morning is spent learning essential strokes and maneuvers necessary to move the kayak. Following a break for lunch (bring your own), we spend the afternoon practicing self and assisted rescues. This course will prepare you to paddle in calm, near-shore environments, and is a great precursor to joining a local paddling club or taking longer trips on your own.
Small group size maximizes learning opportunities, and all equipment, including kayaks and wetsuits, is included in the cost.
Instructor Josh White is an ACA Level 3 Coastal Kayak Instructor.
