Sea Kayaking 115 - Five-Day Kayak Training Camp

The Five-Day Kayak Training Camp is the ultimate experience for beginners and an outstanding course for intermediate paddlers who want to learn more about kayaking. If you're new to the sport, you'll become more experienced than most kayakers by taking this class. If you're more advanced, you will get to learn how to refine your skills to make you a better paddler. Our class size is small so each student can get all he or she can out of it.

This course is a combination of the Paddling Strokes & Rescue Techniques and the Open Water Training Camp except that we add an extra day in the middle of the week. This extra day is used to spend more time on paddle stroke review/refinement with video playback analysis and coaching for each student. We'll also spend extra time working on rolling or perfecting an off-side roll.
