Rental Requirements
At the time of booking your kayaks we will ask you to give some background regarding your previous kayak experience. We are not trying to put you on the spot – this is done only to ensure you’ll receive the appropriate type of information during your 15-30 minute orientation session. All renters must be able to demonstrate, on land, the proper technique for a self-rescue.

Please refer to our policies page for equipment and gear that is damaged, broken, lost or returned in exeptionally dirty condition.
What You Should Bring
Layered clothing, comfortable shoes, rain gear, a warm hat, sunglasses, water bottle & snacks. Don’t forget your camera, and bring your cell phone (we have good coverage in Sitka Sound).
