BCU 3 Star Sea Kayaking - £160.00

  • Two days of progressive skill learning
  • A Gentle Alternative to White water Kayaking
  • A Pre-requisite to coaching awards
 Kayaking is one of the most exciting, affordable and versatile watersports available. The sport covers a huge range of different disciplines such as exploring inland waterways, surfing breaking waves, negotiating white water, doing acrobatics (!), to competing in sprint and slalom events. Basically, when it comes to kayaking, the world is your oyster once you have the basic skills under your belt!

The successful sea-kayaking courses are gaining in popularity largely due to the relaxing calmness of the sport when compared to its brother, white water kayaking. This style is far more gentle and allows the paddler to explore far more as the adrenalin is not quite pumping at full capacity! The Jurassic Dorset Coast is becoming a hot spot for enthusiasts amongst a few others.

Experience Content

Day One will get underway by practicing safety techniques before setting off on a safe but challenging journey through some sticky situations. Day two will focus more on the in-depth coaching and the essential skills required to become a decent kayaker. The water activity and conditions will of course dictate the actual structure of the days.

Theory & Safety Considerations
Equipment
Basic paddling – forwards & backwards
Turning
Capsizing and self rescue
