Nigel Dennis is one of the leading sea kayak expeditioners still on our seas. He has paddled Cape Horn, Easter Island, South Georgia Island, and numerous waters in both our Eastern and Western Hemispheres, from the UK to Australia. His boats are synonymous with British sea kayak design; the NDK Romany and Explorer remain industry standards. Nigel’s Sea Kayaking UK Centre, located in Anglesey, North Wales, is considered a ‘holy grail’ of training venues, with its impressive tidal races like Penrhyn Mawr.
