Locales
With much of the country bounded by sea, many of the cities and regions not on the coast are still conveniently close for outings to marine shores for paddles and downwinders. Some of the more active sprint kayak programs that also foster surfski paddling take trips farther afield to visit classic downwind centers like South Africa.
