Joe Littler2023-02-19Fantastic experience for beginners!
Abhinav Nair2023-02-18Instructor Kavi was patient and guided us safely through the whole session. We will be back!
hari sudarshan2023-02-18Right from the time of contacting the organisation, making the booking and meeting the trainer, it was as smooth and easy as it gets. Went for ocean swimming after a long time and the trainer-kavi mani, was too good in explaining the theoretical aspects of the ocean(the waves, current, tides, winds etc) and the technique for ocean swimming. Went like 200-400mtr into the sea and it was an amazing experience.
deepa vasanthi chinnadurai2023-02-18Kayaking was a new experience for me it was very nice,I saw many pelicans and birds the water was very clear and the area was neat , and there was a coach who taught how to balance the water and peddle overall I loved it.
Shruthi Hariharan2023-02-15Enjoyed the well guided “Discover Kayaking” session immensely! The instructor was very thorough and friendly. The kayaking session including an almost 2-3 km stretch of paddling followed by 30 mins of riding waves. Will definitely suggest this session for kayaking beginners!
