Sea Kayak Improver Days
Sea Kayak Improver days and multi-day courses are suited to people who have done some sea kayaking before and would like to build on their skills so that their kayak can do more for them! The day will be highly personalised looking at individual paddling technique and then lots of top tips and practice to improve your style. Initially we'll stay in a sheltered bay looking at individual paddling technique and practising some skills. Then, we'll embark on a coastal journey to use your skills in context, as well as discover scenery and landscapes few will experience ... secluded bays, coral beaches, islands and unobscured mountain views.
Bring your own packed lunch and we'll take a break on one of the many islands that fringe Plockton. Over lunch we'll take a look at the kit you need as an independent paddler and if the tide is right, explore the beautiful coral and shell beaches. This is the ideal day for you to develop your confidence and technique to help you enjoy rougher waters, manoeuvre your kayak for rescues or around rocks, and tackle more challenging conditions.
Over a multi-day course we will take you to different environments to challenge you even more and cover some of the theory and explore what kit and equipment you'll need to plan and undertake your own paddling trips. If weather permits and if desired, there will be the opportunity for an overnight kayak-camping expedition.
Go to the FAQs page to see what equipment and clothing we provide and what you need to bring. If you have your own sea kayak and equipment then you may bring your own.
