I got into sea kayaking about 10 yeas ago when I was living in Seattle and sea kayaking was
just one of those things people do. But I got addicted. There was something about the way you see the world from the
seat of a kayak that was really cool.
And since then, I’ve done trips all over. Not nearly as much as I’d like, though. My favorite trip was probably
Alaska, but the San Juans are also great. But other than thinking about it in a general way, I’ve never enumerated the
reasons I like the sport. I’ll bet you haven’t either.
Now someone has done it for us. Check out this
article in Sea Paddler magazine, a British mag. It lists the
15 reasons we go sea kayaking. Travel, people, a
new perspective, a good pint. All are right on, and a great reminder why some of us do this sport.
