Kayak types

Recreational Kayaks

• For calm, inland waters.
• Very comfortable.
• Shorter, wider and more stable.
• Perfect for day trips.
• Sit-in, sit-on-top and inflatable options.

Great for beginners, families, or those looking to paddle on calm, inland waters, like lakes or ponds. They have a cockpit, so the paddler sits inside, but there’s no sprayskirt, which can feel more comfortable for first-time kayakers.

River Kayaks

• For rivers, lakes.
• Tight fit.

These short, stubby boats are built to be responsive and maneuverable. They’re usually a tight fit due to their length and are intended to be used with a sprayskirt. River boats are fun and best used on river and lakes.

Sit-on-top Kayaks

• Great for anglers.

• Stable and easy to get in and out of for swimming.
• Great for beginners and families.

These are great for calm, warm water and are popular with anglers. They capsize easily and can be difficult to flip back up, so although they’re called “ocean” kayaks, they are not a good option for cold ocean water.

Sea Kayaks

Racing Kayaks

Of course, first of all, it is important to consider the type of your kayak when choosing accessories and additional tools. First, they can vary by the number of seats:

• single;

• 3 or more seats.

And also there are 5 main types of kayaking:

This is basic kayaking that take place usually on well-protected lakes and other safe bodies of water.

Touring kayaking

Takes place also on protected bodies of water, it is not necessarily reserved for beginning paddlers.

Sea kayaking

Is done out in the ocean or on other bodies of water that are large and unpredictable.

Whitewater kayaking

Exciting and extremely dangerous type and take place on rivers, streams, and creeks where rapids.

Surf kayaking

It takes place in the ocean but uses kayaks similarly shaped to whitewater boats.

Sit-on-top kayaking

It is popular for both recreational and also very specialized purposes, such as fishing, diving, surfing.

Sport kayaking

That’s a general concept to say that there are many kayaks that are designed and outfitted with specific purposes. For example: fishing kayaks have rod holders affixed to them, kayaks for excursions can fit camping gear, scuba diving kayaks have a cutout in the kayak for the dive tank to fit and so on.

Depending on this, various options of hinged tooling are selected.

Also, kayaks differ in design, as do other types of water transport:

• rigid frame;
• rigid frame & soft shell;
• inflatable.

Inflatable models are lightweight and easy to carry. Rigid frames, however, are the best in terms of reliability. A rigid frame can also be made of various material types, ranging from lightweight foam to steel or wooden frame. We’ve reviewed different kayak models and selected the most versatile accessories for you to fit different types of boats, from inflatables to rigid frame options.
