Get in close to the rocks and learn to control and maneuver your sea kayak in this complex environment. We will practice skills that increase our safety around the rocks and maximize fun. Rock specific rescue techniques and methods will be practiced in real conditions. This class is fun for people who already have some ocean paddling experience and can confidently perform regular deep water rescues quickly and effectively. This is a great first time rock gardening experience. 6 hour class $110/person
