Kayaking Newquay
Vertical Descents offers kayaking and waveskiing in Newquay.
Waveskiing is an exciting and fun activity that's relatively easy and accessible for everyone. Our sit-on-top kayaks can be used for scenic wildlife estuary tours or for riding the waves. We have single and two person, rigid, highly manoeuvrable sit-on-top kayaks.
We can teach you how to enjoy them on flat water and progress you out into the waves. Paddling down the face of a wave with your buddy or on your own is a wild water experience not to be missed, a great way to enjoy the surf.
We also offer tours on our sit on top kayaks around the Gannel Estuary of Newquay, see below for details.
