The start of the swim is at the meeting point (our kayak rental point), so you can arrive at a convenient time for you. We have special lightweight paddles for children. We have life jackets in all sizes. From those intended for the smallest (from 10 kg.) to 140 kg. Our rental kayaks are flat-bottomed, similar to canoes. They are stable, it is really difficult to turn over. An additional seat for a child (up to about 4 years old) can be placed in the middle of the double kayak. We were the first in Lithuania to start renting kayaks, so you really have everything you need to make your trip great :-)
