If you do not own or have access to a sea kayak or paddling gear and need to rent from us we are happy to help! You can rent a kayak and all paddling equipment for an additional $35 a day and an extra $15 a day for the dry suit. We do not provide food, so make sure you plan and pack accordingly.
MULTI-DAY KAYAK CLASSES THAT INCLUDE CAMPING IN THE FIELD
For multi-day kayak camping trips participants are responsible for bringing their own camping gear and preparing their own food. We have a limited supply of camping gear that we can rent. Call for details.
