Safety
Sea kayaking in the UK has an excellent safety record and we intend to keep it that way. Therefore, we can only rent kayaks to people who are suitably competent.
This means people who have been assessed and approved by Seafreedom kayak, or:
- For use on sheltered water: Holders of BCU 3 Star kayak or equivalent certificate
- For use on open sea: Holders of BCU 4 Star certificate or to groups of 3 Star standard led by a qualified 5 Star paddler
- We will happily rent kayaks to BCU/SCA qualified coaches to use within their terms of reference.
