We rent kayaks for our lessons and trips, and to our Sound Kayakers club paddlers. About Our Rental Kayaks explains our rental policy and describes our boats. Our sea kayaks include Current Designs, Eddyline, Impex, Necky, and Wilderness Systems brands. Kayaks & Gear on Sale lists kayaks, paddles and gear we're selling.

What to Wear & Bring advises how to outfit for kayaking in all seasons. We post the current water temperature in western L.I. Sound, and have links to NOAA weather, Long Island Sound sea temperature, local tides, sunset/moon rise information, and a hypothermia chart. If you don't see what you're looking for, contact us. We're happy to answer your sea kayaking questions.

Join our club, Sound Kayakers, to take part in monthly trips, safety clinics, kayak camping, priority for guest instructors, and for discounts on rentals and tours. Membership includes a members-only newsletter. Joining an active sea kayak club is the best way for sea kayakers of all levels to improve their skills and meet other paddlers.
