Other information
|
The Phillip Island Tour is 12 km long, or 3.5 hours. However, finishing time will depend on the weather, tides, activities along the way, group fitness and skill.
SKA has single and double sea kayaks. The double sea kayaks are "Pittaraks" which are fast (6.6 m long) ocean going sea kayaks. These sea kayaks are also very stable with ample storage space and are equipped with a rudder for easy turning. The single kayaks are Q Kayak "Penguins". Participants would normally be placed in a double sea kayak for safety and group speed considerations rather than in single kayaks.
