ABOUT US

seapaddling.com offers you - the magical experience of exploring pebbled coves and sheltered beaches, foam-blown headlands and sculpted sea arches.  The opportunity to glide over sun-sparkled shallows while encountering occasional wildlife is an experience far removed from that of sightseeing on land.  Only when you have paddled towards a setting sun, snatched a glimpse of birds nesting on an island, delved into the depths of a sea-cave unreachable from the cliffs above, will you begin to understand what sea kayaking has to offer.

 

seapaddling.com offers you - an adventure which will create memories to be cherished for years to come.  This may be the beginning of a lifelong passion or an unusual pastime to dabble in with friends and family.  The beauty of sea touring is that it’s accessible to all ages – from 14 to 114.  There is little that can beat the sensation of a kayak cutting through a sun-shimmered ocean as the sea beneath you comes alive with marine life.  This is about opening your eyes and your mind to a unique perspective on life---on the sea
