Sit-on-top kayaking is one of the most accessible and fun ways to get onto the water paddling. Unlike traditional "sit-inside" kayaks where your legs are enclosed within a cockpit, sit-on-top kayaks (also known as SOTs) feature an open deck with sealed hull design that as the name suggests... you sit on top of! In general they are very stable and if you capsize you simply climb back on without needing complex safety rolls, whilst built-in scupper holes automatically drain any water from the deck to keep you afloat. Whether you want to explore your local waterways or coastline, try kayak fishing, or simply enjoy a relaxing day on the water, a sit-on-top kayak allows complete novices to pick up a paddle and feel confident within minutes.
