Navigation Classroom

Join Us for Fun and Learning

This is an introduction to kayak navigation class for all levels.  If you’ve taken navigation before, you can still come, I guarantee you probably forgot a lot of it.  We will be planning a trip and looking at the factors to consider.  Then we discuss what we might expect while paddling.
