Sea Kayak Navigation consists of "on-land", a class room seminar, and "on the water" navigation.

This course consists of 2 different events/activities; in class and on the water. Each activity is mutually exclusive. 

Participants can take one without the other, except for those who are enrolled in the Sea Kayak intermediate program and seeking to fulfill navigation requirement. You must take both.

Note: Those who take the "on-land" class room seminar will have the priority to register for the "on the water" trip.
