Recreational kayaks are suitable for protected coastal waters, tidal estuaries, rivers, lakes, dams and surf zones. These types of kayaks make up a large proportion of the designs that are on the market today. Offering comfort and affordability with average lengths between 3.0 - 5.0 meters, they are very stable due to a wide beam. Kayaks are available in single, double and triple. Recreational kayaks are an excellent first choice for someone wanting to start their kayaking in safe waters on a stable kayak.
