Get your Flatwater Kayak Certification By Combining A Weekend Kayak Course And Our In-pool Rescue Course
|
| These great weekend skill development sessions will be spent in the fabulous Toronto Island Archipelago. We will spend lots of time on the water, striving to become intimate with the special "feel" of the sea kayak. Even if you have never been in a kayak before, this course will take you right from the beginning, and will most importantly give you time to ask questions and refine the paddling skills you have learned. Participants have the opportunity to achieve their Paddle Canada Flatwater Kayak Certification depending on goals and ability, and by combining this course with the In-Pool Rescue Course.
Classes run from 10:00 am to 4:30 pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Please note: Participants will have the opportunity to purchase their lunch locally on the Saturday however will need to bring one to pack on the Sunday (Islands Travel day).
Maximum class size is 6.
