All these sea kayak expeditions involve wild camping, except the Isles of Scilly where wild camping is not permitted.

The price of the sea kayak trips includes food, camping fees, BCU 3 star sea assessment should you wish to take it and for Isles of Scilly the ferry there and back.

A kit list will be provided detailing what you will be expected to bring.
Kit is available should it be required.

The emphasis of these sea kayak trips is to enjoy the beauty of our coastline and to get a chance to connect with wilderness and nature in a peaceful and relaxed way while at the same time improving our health and fitness.
There will be plenty of time to focus on various sea kayak expedition skills including boat handling, campcraft, navigation and safety and rescue and the opportunity is there to do your BCU 3 Star Sea Assessment should you wish.

*The recommended skill level is a guideline based on the BCU Star tests but there is no need to hold any kayaking awards to attend these trips.

Please book well in advance as numbers
are limited.
