Ever Try Surf Kayaking?

Sunday June 7, 2009

I recently had the opportunity to surf kayak in Vero Beach, FL over Memorial Day weekend. What a blast! Since I've moved back to FL I've had to take my whitewater where I can get it. Lucky for me, there's plenty of waves in Central and North Florida.

It really is amazing that more kayakers don't give it a shot. For whitewater kayakers, it's a great alternative to staying at home when the rivers aren't running. Sea kayakers and recreational paddlers will also find it an amazing experience, if not from a closed boat then while captaining a sit-on-top.

Check out the Surf Kayaking Photo Gallery from my Vero Beach trip to see what you're missing.
