Why?

We organize this Basic Kayak Course for you to learn the fundamentals for your first approach to the fantastic world of Sea Kayaking.

The Basic Kayak Course aims to make the main maneuvers to conduct a kayak in favorable weather conditions. (very little wind and calm sea).

Who is this course for?

This Basic Course is perfect for those who approach sea kayaking for the first time or have very little experience.

Sea kayaking is not rocket science but learning the basics with professionals makes it safer and less tiring. We see everyday kayakers, so-called experts, repeating the same mistakes at every paddle stroke.

An instructor of the Italian Canoe and Kayak Federation will lead the course which is divided into 4 meetings.

On the first three meetings of 1 h 30 minutes we will go through a little bit of theory and a lot of practicing. The fourth and final meeting of four hours will have the kayak tour excursion formula, to put into practice everything you have learned previously.

Where?

The picturesque bay of Marina Piccola harbour and Poetto beach is the perfect spot for your first paddling!
