For the beginner kayaker

Is there someone on your shopping list who has been renting kayaks for a while? Make their year by buying them a Neptune sit on kayak.

At only 18kg, The Neptune is our lightest, smaller-sized entry-level kayak. It’s great for the beach, or paddling solo on a harbour, river or lake. Due to its size, it’s also perfect for taking on boats.

The Neptune is our smallest and lightest entry-level kayak, and it comes in a wide variety of colours!

Because of the width compared to its length, The Neptune is very stable. Its slim profile and compact size also allows for easy handling, and is perfect for those with limited space to store their kayak.

“Very happy with my purchase. This is a great little kayak, easy to transport, not too heavy and easy to manage so I tend to use it frequently and can get it onto my roof racks without much trouble.” – Darren R.

Even with this entry-level kayak, you still get high-quality accessories. So, it won’t just be a kayak they’re unwrapping on Christmas Day:

  • One lightweight aluminium paddle
  • One standard kayak backrest
  • Bow, stern and side handles
  • Two waterproof twist lock hatch covers
  • Drain plug
  • Deck bungee cord.
