Trip Description
Learning to Sea Kayak in Scotland over two days.
These trips take place over any weekend in the summer and are particularly popular on the bank holiday weekends. We can also run the two days at any other time for groups of three or more. Find out what sea kayaking is all about - beaches, seals, otters and hidden treasures .
The two days will allow you to cover all the basic paddle skills and use them on a trip on the second day where you will be guided around the untouched islands and see the stunning beauty of the local area. The aim of the course is to build your confidence in kayaking and introduce you to the skills that will allow you to pursue kayaking further.
