Special Dietary requirements.

We prioritize the safety and well-being of all participants on our sea kayaking trips, including those with special dietary requirements or allergies. To ensure everyone's needs are met, we collect detailed information about dietary restrictions and allergies through our medical form during the booking process. This allows us to tailor our meal preparations accordingly, accommodating various dietary needs while ensuring safety, especially in cases of allergies. Our experienced guides are trained to handle dietary restrictions and will work closely with participants to ensure their dietary needs are met throughout the trip. By gathering this information in advance, we can provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants.
