Hey! 🌟 For kayaking newbies, pack a life jacket, paddle, whistle, dry bags, and sunscreen, and don’t forget to check the weather! 🌦️ Safety tip: stay aware of your surroundings, and if you’re unsure, ask for local advice. Thanks for the help in advance! 🙌🚣♂️

Start with calm, flat waters to get comfortable with your kayak and practice your paddling technique. Always wear a life jacket and take a basic safety course to understand how to handle different situations on the water.

I think learning how to properly adjust your kayak seat and foot pegs can make a big difference in comfort, though! 🪑🦶

Wear a life jacket, bring waterproof gear, and remember: the paddle goes in the water, not your phone! 🛶😅

For beginners, definitely bring a life jacket, wear quick-dry clothes, and keep your paddle close to you. Make sure you know how to properly brace yourself to stay upright, and always check the weather before heading out. Have fun and stay safe! 🚣♂️😊
