Kayaking is a great way to explore nature, because a kayak has few limits. It is versatile in places that range from a thin film of water in a riverbed, to faster flowing rivers and rapids to even great oceans and waves several feet high. Calm waters are usually preferred for kayaking, because a kayaking adventure is more than just paddling. Kayaking will bring you to places that are best explored from a small boat close to the waters surface. In a kayak, you will be able to glide through sea caves and zigzag the reefs without any navigation problems. You can approach wildlife in the water and close to the shore, meet other boating cultures on your journey, or just enjoy the silence around you. You will settle into the easy natural rhythm of the paddle and the kayak and very often the only noise you will hear will be your paddle meeting the water.
Sea kayaking is an activity that is fun for people of all ages and skill levels. From the novice kayaker to the experienced ocean going veteran, anyone can do it. Comfort and safety should be your first priority. In Rio de Janeiro, places suitable for kayaking can be found almost anywhere, some of them offering opportunities for adventure with the thrill of the sport is mixed with the delight of fantastic scenery.
