Kids love kayaking and we love sharing the outdoors via kayak with them. Kids really enjoy the special activities that we have for them. Each tour is customized to the kids' developmental levels and interests (Cate is a former classroom teacher whose classrom is now on the water).
We recommend our Sunset Bird Paddle or Noyo Meander for anyone ages 3 and up. We use stable and comfortable tandem sea kayaks for our tours that are great for kids and adults. We usually have 3 and 4 year old children sit in the lap of a parent in the front of one of our tandem sea kayaks (or in their own special seat between their parents). 5 years and up enjoy the front row seat of a tandem.
What about adventurous children? From mild to wild, we have options for everyone. Ages 9 and up will enjoy our cruising the wild -coastal exploration. And for those that like a lot of adventure, 12 years and up will be thrilled by our Wet & Wild - Kayaking ROCKS!!!
What about safety? All of our tours and classes are led by Jeff or Cate who are professional kayak instructors who specialize in teaching and certifying others in kayak safety. Also, they are both certified in first aid and cpr and are trained lifeguards.
As always, please call or email if you have questions about our tours and activities for kids.
Check out our newly developed pages for kids. These contain educational materials on the wildlife and wonders of the Noyo River and Pacific Ocean as well as information for kids on kayaking.
