Lake Kayaking Intro Clinic

Kayak Touring is an excellent opportunity to experience solitude while paddling a stable craft on a placid lake. Topics at the one evening clinic will include: strokes, touring skills, packing, safety procedures and self rescue a capsize boat. Learn about the various boat designs; experiencing the different hull shapes & sizes will give you a better understanding on your kayak purchase.

Tour kayaking does not require you to be a super athlete. The kayaks that we use are very stable and easy to maneuver. For safety purposes, life jackets will be provided as well as full instruction on kayak use.
