The Sea Awards are designed for paddlers looking for recognition of their skills for a safe day out on the sea.

Awards can be taken in either tidal or non-tidal environments, allowing greater access for paddlers using locations that have little or no tidal movements but has the appropriate wind conditions. There are no prerequisites or age restrictions, so start your next award today.

The Sea Kayak Award endorses your skill, judgment, and the decision making required for a successful day on the sea.

You will be confident in planning and undertaking journeys on the sea in winds up to and including force 3 and/or tides up to 1 Knot, using sea kayaks or sit on tops, in tidal or non-tidal environments, with proficient skills to be in control throughout.

Your award should be seen as a sound basis for building the experience and knowledge associated with Coastal Sea Kayak Award holders.
