This session is part of a series where NSPN members can learn and cooperatively practice paddling skills in a saltwater environment. There is no skill level requirement, you just need a safe boat and basic gear:
closed-deck sea kayak suitable for coastal paddling, with sealed bulkheads or float bags, and grab lines along the perimeter
dress for immersion and spray skirt
lunch, snacks and fluid
a desire to have fun, learn and share!
