Trips and Courses

At Seafreedom, we don't run set programs on set days. Instead, all of our kayaking trips and courses are tailored to the individual client.

You decide how many days you would like, contact us to discus your requirements and we will arrange something appropriate for you

You can come on your own, with a partner or friend or with a small group

You can choose whether or not you want to join with other people at a similar level or just paddle with people you know

Normally, the maximum group size will be limited to six people.

Having said all that, to get an idea of what you might do, have a look at the options table below
