Canoe Vacations and Fun Canoeing Getaways
Water sports are often at the center of a family's or an
individual's recreational schedule. Water skiing, speed boating,
sailing or parasailing, scuba diving, and fishing are just some
of the many exciting activities that you can enjoy on a stream,
pond, lake, or sea. Depending on where you live and the places
you want to visit while on vacation, you can probably find a
suitable body of water for canoeing, a popular favorite of the
water-loving sports crowd. You can rent a canoe or bring your
own, and do it alone or take along a friend, making this one of
the more versatile water activities that is readily available.
Whether for a weekend getaway or a two-week vacation, you can
enjoy a leisurely canoe ride as part of your fun schedule away
from home.
1. For less experienced or younger canoeists, try paddling
around a pond or down a slow stream. This will help get the
paddlers used to the momentum needed to keep the boat moving
along. Canoeing in shallow water lets beginners learn to
navigate water with little danger of drowning, especially with
two or more people together. If one ends up in the water, the
other may be able to help pull him out.
2. Those with intermediate canoeing skills may want to take the
boat out onto a lake in the area. With deeper waters, more of a
current, and a higher volume of traffic, the canoeing experience
will be more challenging, thus helping the paddlers to improve
existing skills or to develop new ones. For this type of outing,
the occupants
of the canoe should wear life jackets and bring
along safety equipment, like a radio and any needed supplies.
3. A more challenging outing can be experienced in mountain
streams, parkland lakes, or seawaters. These areas should be
undertaken by only experienced canoeists, as unexpected
currents, flood waters, or obstacles can throw a boater
off-guard. A good idea would be to take a boating safety course
first and learn how to manage a canoe in adverse circumstances,
such as a boat leak, illness, or unexpected severe weather.
If you take your own canoe on one of these trips, be sure to
check the boat for leaks, and make sure it is clean and ready
for use. Don't forget to see if the life preservers or jackets
operate, as they should. Presumably, a rental boat would have
undergone the same sort of inspection. When putting any boat
into the water, make sure it appears seaworthy, and that you
have all the necessary equipment to make a safe trip, especially
if you're headed to the wilderness.
Canoeing is fun but challenging. Learn boating safety and first
aid practices in case a problem should occur, though hopefully
none will. Depending on where you will be canoeing, find out who
the maritime authorities are so you can get help or report
problems, if necessary. Always take a communications device with
you in case of emergency.
