Sea Kayaking Wales

Unfortunately that depends on many factors. They are all tailor-made tours and the cost does depend on:

– How many people are in your group
– Location of the kayak
– Whether it’s a 1/2 day, full day or multi-night tour
– Time of year can also have a factor

It really doesn’t take long for us to reply so either get a quote or contact us on the group chat today!

To book your Big Blue Adventure we take a small 30% non-refundable deposit to start and take the remaining 70% either 3 weeks before if it’s a day tour or activity sale, or 6 weeks before for any overnight packages.

If you are booking closer to the adventure date and within the 3 weeks or 6 weeks final balance deadline then we will require full payment upfront.

We mostly accept an easy bank transfer from the group leader, but on request we can easily set up a debit or credit card payment over the phone.

We can include all your catering needs depending on the tour – it is tailor-made for your group! It all depends on what type of meal you want, how much budget you have and the itinerary. We work with some amazing local establishments and try to get our groups to connect to the culture through good food and good times.

We can also just factor in time during the tour to make a food stop and you can buy your own. It is flexible but we will cover this in our quote proposal to you.

The kit you need to bring depends on the kayak. For 1/2 day and full day kayaks your essentials include:

• A pair of old spare trainers or wetsuit boots is fine for kayaking
• Swimwear or spare underwear for under the wetsuit. Try and avoid boardies as anything baggy can be very uncomfortable under a wetsuit
• A towel (ponchos are also provided on day or multi-night tours)
• Sun cream
• Water (please try and avoid throw away single use plastic!)
• Any medication you need to keep on you, such as an asthma pump

All the essential kit is included; The kayaks, paddles, spray decks (sit in kayaks), cags and any other essential kit suitable for the seasons, wetsuits, helmets, buoyancy aids and any gear your kayaking tour requires.

We take group sizes of 10+ people.

While we don’t expect you to be at an Olympic swimmer standard, you do need to have a small confidence in the water at least. As a rough marker you should be able to swim a length of the pool unaided, in a style you feel ok with non-stop, even with your head above water. You will have flotation devices and safety gear on with our experienced guides to help you, so don’t worry if you aren’t the strongest swimmer or the most confident. We just need to ensure you will react accordingly and be safe in the event you capsize or go for a swim!

Yes for those who fancy it a winter or low-season kayak is of course possible. We have winter kit to keep you warm and you can have some beautiful adventures even in colder months. It’s just during winter we are limited to low daylight hours and more at the mercy of the weather gods with storms and harsher conditions affecting plans. So, for a winter kayak we suggest having some flexibility with some plan b dates in mind.
