Canoeing / kayaking is an environmentally friendly sporting activity which also allows for constant interaction with Mother Nature. From mysterious mangroves to quiet creeks & back waters, to lakes & wide rivers, there is always something to marvel at. Whether it is fabulous reflections of the sky, mirror perfect images of vegetation that leave you dizzy, slightly disorientated & wondering which way is up or nature’s orchestra of birdsong & insects, canoeing opens up a wonderland to nature lovers, photographers & those among us just wanting to enjoy different experiences. Calming, relaxing & sometimes meditative, canoeing offers it all, as well as improving your fitness.
