Surfski start

With a surf ski, you can ride the waves. Do you love the water and enjoy sport? Then take up the challenge and treat yourself to a surprise: come and try surf skiing. A surf ski is a sit-on-top kayak that you propel using a special paddle. You can use it for a sightseeing tour or an active journey from A to B.

The latter is known as downwind sailing; as the name suggests, this involves a trip with the wind at your back whilst trying to ride the waves. You can go on a tour with little or no experience, provided you’re reasonably fit. For downwind sailing, you’ll need some experience, which you can learn at Surfskistart. A reasonable to good level of fitness is essential for this. If you already have kayaking experience and are in reasonable shape, Surfskistart will take you out onto the Markermeer.
