    Overview

    This 2-hour session introduces kids to the basics of kayaking in a hands-on, action-packed setting. Our instructors have experience teaching children and will make sure your kids have a blast!

    All our classes emphasize safety on the water. We begin with an on-land introduction to equipment and basic paddle strokes. After that, we get on the water and use games to learn to maneuver a kayak and develop confidence on the water and in a boat.

    Classes are kept small, with a maximum student/instructor ratio of 4:1; and are designed for children ages 8 to 12.
