Try out kayaking

Try Kayaking
Have you always wanted to try kayaking? Join us for a relaxed introductory session where we paddle at an easy pace, making it suitable for everyone regardless of previous experience.
Please note that Session 1 and 3 appears longer, but the actual paddling time is the same for all sessions (1.5 hours). The extra time is needed for getting everyone equipped and the kayaks ready.
We will meet at Lindparken, next to the prison, where Vaasa Kayak Rental has its storage container.
Please note: The event is weather dependent.
Requirement: Participants must be able to swim.
