Kayak

A Kayak is a small, human-powered craft that brings you close to the water. It is quiet, simple, and easy to handle. Book a trip to explore hidden coves, glide over clear shallows, and enjoy wildlife at eye level.

KAYAKS are compact and light, usually nine to fourteen feet long. You can choose sit-on-top models for easy entry, or sit-inside models for a drier ride. Many have sealed hatches and deck bungees for dry bags and extra gear.

Guided kayak trips focus on calm lakes, slow rivers, and sheltered coastal water. They are great for sightseeing, eco tours, and photography. Short outings at sunrise or sunset are popular, and launches from a beach or dock are common.

This trip suits beginners, families with older kids, and active travelers. Basic instruction covers paddling, turning, and how to re-enter near the stern, which is the rear. Bring water, sun protection, quick-dry clothes, and secure sandals. Expect light spray, and wear a life jacket or PFD, which is a personal flotation device.

Before you go, check local rules and safety guidance. Know if PFDs are required, if lights are needed after dark, and if a launch permit applies. Follow your guide’s safety briefing, and never paddle under the influence of alcohol. Respect wildlife and wakes from larger boats. If you paddle without a guide, share a simple float plan with someone on shore.
