What is expedition kayaking?
A journey with a purpose is what an expedition is all about. If there is something about the journey that makes it unique or extraordinary and more than just a sea kayak voyage, then it can be considered an expedition.
What are touring kayaks good for?

What is a day touring kayak?

How much water should you drink a day kayaking?
For short trips of less than two days, most people need one gallon or four liters per person. If a kayaker is kayaking for a long time, they should drink one gallon of water per day.

What is the difference between a recreational kayak and a touring kayak?
A recreational kayak is about 10 to 12 feet long and 27 to 30 inches wide at the cockpit. To appeal to more advanced kayakers, touring kayaks are constructed with a longer and narrower body.
Are touring kayaks good for beginners?
The boats beginners choose aren’t much fun to paddle because of the serious safety issues. If a new sit-inside touring kayak sells for less than a hundred dollars, it’s not worth owning, even for a beginner.
What’s the difference between a touring kayak and a sea kayak?
The sea kayak has a higher rocker than the touring kayak, which helps it crest into oncoming waves. The front profile is narrow and V-shaped. They are able to deal with rougher waters, but not with stability.
