More details on how to prepare for your adventure:
Quick-drying clothing: Opt for synthetic materials like polyester or nylon that dry quickly. Avoid cotton as it tends to stay wet and can make you feel cold and uncomfortable.
Moisture-wicking base layers: Wear a moisture-wicking base layer to keep sweat away from your skin, helping you stay dry and comfortable throughout your kayak trip.
Sun protection: Since you'll be out on the water, it's crucial to protect yourself from the sun's harmful UV rays. Consider wearing a lightweight, long-sleeved shirt and pants to cover your skin.
