Kayaking to enjoy this summer

Kayaking is a watersport that involves paddling a small boat, called a kayak, through water using a double-bladed paddle. It's a popular recreational activity that can be enjoyed on a variety of waterways, from calm lakes and rivers to the open ocean.

There are two types of kayaks: sit-in kayaks and sit-on-top kayaks. Sit-in kayaks have a cockpit that the paddler sits inside, while sit-on-top kayaks have an open cockpit where the paddler sits on top of the boat. Both types of kayaks can be used for recreational paddling, although sit-on-top kayaks are typically used for more casual and relaxed paddling, while sit-in kayaks are often used for touring and more serious paddling.
