This is a private kayak adventure for Manhattan Kayak. Whether your aim to is to get more experience in conditions with people who really have your back, or just want to get out and enjoy some fall paddling in bumpy water, this trip is for you! Taught from a comfortable house base with great family meals right near the beach, we will be able to take maximum advantage of whatever the elements throw our way.
This program will strengthen your bracing and rescue skills in conditions and help you work on navigating tides and currents. We will build the week around your own development goals.
Because this program is focused on a maximum of 8 paddlers with 2-3 well-qualified instructors, you’ll get extremely personalized coaching.
Price includes rental of sport-oriented kayak (Stratos, Virgo, Delphin, or Romany) with outfitting, ACA/PaddleUK (BC) certified coaching, comfortable rental house lodging and most meals (breakfasts, build-your-own lunches and all dinners except two). Price does not include travel to and from the venue (Uber is available from Savannah airport), restaurant meals (we'll have a couple of meals out at local restaurants for fun and to support local businesses), alcohol, guide gratuity, or travel insurance.
NOTE: This trip requires a minimum of 4 kayakers and has a maximum capacity of 8. If we do not meet the 4 person minimum by August 15, deposits will be refunded minus the Origin handling fees. Everyone will be notified as soon as we reach the minimum so travel arrangements can be arranged.
