A professional-led kayaking programme that allows children and their parents to experience kayaking together. They can kayak around Sharp Island and view the artworks located on the island at the same time.

The programme will start by briefing on land. The coach will explain safety in the sea and teach basic kayaking skills before leading the children and their parents to board the double kayaks to explore in the sea. The coach will continue to brief and take care of the participants enroute and may play adventure water games with the participants if conditions allow!

Route: Sharp Island (Starts) -> Sharp Island Tombolo (Off shore to appreciate artworks) -> Sharp Island (Ends)

Remarks:
Participants must be able to swim for about 50m wearing lifejacket or buoyancy

Collaborator’s Introduction:

The Centre has started to provide water sports experience to the public since the 1970s and trained a number of Hong Kong and youth kayaking representatives. The Centre’s vision is to provide “professional training, active experience and safe participation” for participants and to promote water sports. In addition, the Centre also provides kayaking guided tours on ecology. These special kayaking tours are led by the professional coaches and tour guides, which not only provide fun experience to the participants, but also aim to promote ecological conservation and water safety.
