Kyaking

The kayaking group consists of people with their own boats as well as those who have to rent kayaks. We usually do two "Demo Days" at Comox Valley Kayaks, one in the Spring and one in the Fall. On these days our Club members get 50% off the usual rental rates and can try out different kayaks on the Estuary. In the past our members have also rented from Alberni Sports who also have a rental operation on the Estuary and in the summer a limited number of boats are available for rent at Comox Lake. We usually do at least two paddles on Comox Lake each year.
 
Other locations where we have gone kayaking are in front of our house near Kin Beach, Goose Spit, Spider Lake and the Campbell River Estuary. We try to do at least one PROBUS paddle each month during the season. As with all PROBUS groups, everyone is welcome to join but members have to be aware that the group leader is not an instructor, people paddle at their own risk, and must be able to get back in their own boat should they fall out (self-rescue).
