Our kayaks are sit-on kayaks. These kayaks are more stable and easier to paddle. Why not give them a try! As with all watersports you are likely to get a bit wet as water drips from paddles. Kayak scuppers may also come loose, if this occurs they can be pushed back in. It is advisable to bring a towel and maybe a change of clothes for afterwards.
