Paddlers on this course bring a basic understanding of sea kayak (or river/white water) boat handling skills, that they want to apply and develop on fairly exposed coastline journeys. These journeys provide entertainment for a wide range of sea kayaker.

Swell and current often interact with the shoreline to give challenges that the more adventurous participants may play and hone their skills in. There will always be alternative easier lines to take. Essentially, we aim to choose journeys where our participants can modulate their own levels of exciting or cruisey lines, as we all explore the coastline.

British Canoeing Sea Kayak Award - work through SKW’s handy checklist. We are unlikely to be able to complete the British Canoeing Sea Kayak Award award on this course, as we may be too busy playing and journeying, to complete the syllabus. Should you wish to complete this award please book onto a bespoke sea kayaking day with one of our coaching team.
