Introduction to Sea Kayaking on Anglesey

 

Anglesey has one of the best coastlines anywhere to learn to sea kayak along! And did you know that people visit Anglesey from all over the World specifically for its amazing sea kayaking.

This beginner’s sea kayaking course introduces people with no, or just a little, kayaking experience to sea kayaking. We will cover the essential boat handling skills and planning procedures necessary to journey along the coastline.

The Introduction to Sea Kayaking course sometimes runs with up to a maximum group size of 8 participants - with 2 coaches. This group size enables us to split the course into 2 groups, of differing boating ambitions.

  • Morning planning sessions, over coffee

  • Quality sea kayak and related equipment supplied for the duration of the course
