Preparation guide
What do I need to bring?
All you really need to bring is sufficient base clothing to wear e.g. costume for under a wetsuit, thermal and fleece layer for the top. In addition, some suitable footwear that will fit comfortably in a kayak and lace up to keep them on in the water. Our stores have a wide range of Peak UK soft wear as well as paddles for you to use. We have an extensive selection of different styles of kayaks from a range of manufacturers. This is an ideal opportunity to try something new if you'd like to. If you prefer the familiar, feel free to bring along your own kit. A hat to protect you from the heat or the cold may be useful, as would suncream, a dry bag for your lunch, a waterproof camera to capture some memories and a water bottle that can be accessed easily throughout the day. The hydration packs that can be accessed whilst paddling are really useful for this e.g. Camelbak
How should I prepare?
You'll be kayaking regularly and comfortably in moderate sea conditions and have a reliable roll.
