No prior kayaking experience is required. The tour is suitable for all levels, including complete beginners. Your guide will start with a brief lesson on kayaking techniques in the sheltered waters of Mousehole Harbour before heading out along the coastline. This ensures that you’re comfortable and confident with the basics, regardless of your experience. ### How long is the kayaking tour, and what’s the overall duration? The actual kayaking time is approximately 2 hours. However, the total session lasts around 2-3 hours, including time for equipment fitting, safety briefings, and post-session changing. This flexibility allows the tour to adapt to group pace and conditions, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable experience. ### Is it safe? On arrival you will be equipped with a warm full length wetsuit, buoyancy aid and helmet. Your safety is our number 1 priority. The tour will be run at your pace and match your confidence. ### What is the minimum age for participation? The minimum age for participating in a single kayak is 12 years old. Children aged 6-12 years can join the tour but must share a double kayak with an adult. This ensures that younger children are accompanied by a responsible adult for safety. ### What should I bring to the kayaking tour? You should bring swimwear to wear under your wetsuit and trainers or suitable footwear (such as wetsuit boots or beach shoes). You’ll also need a towel and a changing robe for before and after the session. If you don’t have suitable footwear, the guide reserves the right to exclude you from the session for safety reasons. Shorts to wear over the wetsuit are also recommended to protect it from sharp rocks and barnacles. ### Can I bring my own wetsuit?

The team will monitor weather forecasts to ensure the safety and quality of the tour. ### Do I need to be a strong swimmer to participate?

Buoyancy aids are provided for added safety, but a basic level of swimming ability is required. ### Is photography included in the tour? Yes, complimentary photography is included in every session. Your guide will take photos throughout the tour, capturing the best moments of your adventure.
