'Swimming with Seals' - Sea Kayaking Isle of Man

Adventure Club

The Improvers group are progressing well, working on preventing a capsize, low recovery and paddling in moderate sea conditions - ready for their introduction to moving water at the Sound next Sunday...

Intermediates training launched straight off the Sound - on the South coast of the Isle of Man, to make use of the ideal training conditions on Sunday ...

... finishing the sea kayaking skills with the whole group swimming their kayaks across the tide between Kitterland and the mainland, with seals swimming around us!

With coaching ratios staying below 1:2 for the morning, and 1:1 instructor to student ratio for the Intermediate session, the learning curve is highly visible. A tremendous effort by everyone!

A relaxing stretching session was the ultimate conclusion to an very productive Sunday, and we had the occasional tourist joining in on this element too! :)

Welcome to our new members of the Adventure Club, who joined us in the last few weeks, and to those who will be joining us shortly. We have just uploaded the outlines of exclusive holidays and trips on offer to Adventure Club members in 2010!

Coasteering

Sessions running in plenty as the sea water is now at its warmest!

A few pics from the group on Saturday - using the rocky coastline around Peel Castle, on the West Coast of the Isle of Man, one of our most popular routes!

We will also be running Gorge Scrambling next Saturday, as well as our more family orientated exploratory Coasteering route - check the website Calendar for adventures we have scheduled, or contact us to arrange your own small or large group!
