Learn to white water kayak with Eastern Mountain Sports Kayak Schools experienced and professional ACA Instructors. Come have a blast on a class 1-2 white water river while you learn the proper skills needed to safely and effectively enjoy this fantastic sport.
This is a great way to get started in white water, we will spend the first part of the day outfitting you with the right equipment and then move onto some flat-water to learn about basic strokes and boat control. After lunch we will choose a stretch of river to go have some fun. We touch on many skills needed to paddle white water, but our focus is about having a good time and enjoying the thrill of white water and the scenery around us.
