“Our mission is to share our love of kayaking with our community, to be a resource for beginners, and to instill safe paddlesport culture on Shark River and beyond.”

 

A BIT ABOUT US

We believe that kayaking is a wonderful outdoor activity that most can do, and we know that kayaking is inherently risky. Our approach is to make it easy for people to enjoy a leisurely paddle, while sharing our knowledge and experience in paddlesports, with a goal to provide a learning based fun experience for our participants.

She is certified by the American Canoe Association as a Level 2 Sit-on-Top Kayak Instructor. Kira is also certified in CPR and First Aid, a requirement for the ACA instructor certification.
