Beschrijving

Please note that all trips must be booked 1–2 weeks before your preferred date to ensure availability, proper preparation, and the best possible experience on the water.
Take part in a kayaking program designed for dads and daughters to have a bonding experience while sharing a sit-in touring tandem kayak during a fun, adventure-filled class or eco-tour. Learn paddling skills and enjoy a day out on the water.

Start with on-land instruction and a safety briefing, adjust the gear to your stature, and be on the water soon thereafter. Besides teaching paddling skills, also highlight areas such as leadership development, effective communication, adaptability, perseverance, planning, group problem-solving, and maintaining a winner attitude.

Enjoy a half-day commitment, but it can be designed to be a full day with the incorporation of a guided eco-tour, lunch, and more. Classes take place on a variety of wind-and-wave-protected waters around Houston metropolitan (Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Cypress, Clear Lake, etc).

Paddle for 3-4 hours and cover a distance of 3-5 miles. Take meaningful precautions to avoid unintended capsizes, however, small crafts are unstable and water dripping off the paddle into your lap is possible. Dress for immersion by wearing clothes made of synthetic materials that are comfortable and dry out quickly. Avoid any cotton clothing.

Dress with a long sleeve shirt and long pants to avoid insects and sunburns. For exposed skin, bring sunscreen and plan to apply often. Your feet will get wet up to the knee. Water shoes, closed-toed sandals, or old sneakers are a great kayaking choice. Crocs, flip-flops, hiking boots, and rain boots are not good options.

Bring a large brim hat with an under-chin strap and sunglasses. Bring paddling gloves or cycling/workout gloves to prevent blisters and sunburn.
