FAQ

Here are some frequently asked questions we get. If you can’t see yours there just send us an e-mail here and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

What do I wear?

NKT actively practises sun smart paddling, the water can be a place of high sun exposure. Please use Sun block and wear “Sun Safe” clothing. Long sleeves are best, gloves are great if you have them. If you have a lightweight spray/wind jacket bring it along.

How about Sunnies?

Another must – high UV and glare can make it a tougher day than it should be if you forget your sunnies.

What about my feet?

We highly recommend you wear neoprene water shoes (booties) if you have them, they are the recognised footwear for paddlers. If you don’t have them a pair of light weight old joggers or volley’s are ok. It is very important to have your laces well concealed or even taped as they can cause entrapment in an emergency if they are left hanging loose.

Do I need to wear a hat?

Yes, we cannot stress this strongly enough. A hat with a way of tying it to your person is even better. If you are holidaying and don’t have a hat for some reason please ask to borrow one of ours.

Do I need to bring anything?

You will need a filled Water Bottle for every activity. Dehydration on the water is a problem. If you are doing a short tour or lesson then please bring snacks to put in your life PFD. Our main half day and full-day tours have food provided
