Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need previous kayaking experience for a freedom rental?

Yes, some experience is recommended. Freedom rentals are for those who are confident paddling and able to self-guide. If you are a complete beginner, a guided tour is more suitable.

Are there age or fitness restrictions for participants?

Children can join, but the minimum age depends on conditions and ability. Typically, kids under 14 should be in a double kayak with an adult.
A reasonable level of fitness is required, as you’ll be paddling independently, sometimes against wind or tide.

Are dry bags or waterproof storage containers provided?

Yes. Kahu Kayaks provides dry bags or waterproof storage barrels for your gear so you can bring food, cameras, and essentials safely.

What is the latest return time for the kayaks?

Kayaks usually need to be returned by late afternoon (around 4–5 PM), depending on conditions and the length of your rental. The team will confirm your exact latest return time before departure.

What should I wear for a freedom kayak trip?

You are recommended to wear quick-drying active wear (avoid cotton), a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses with a strap, and a windproof layer. Wear footwear you don’t mind getting wet, such as sandals, water shoes, or old sneakers.

Is camping overnight an option with these rentals?

Yes, Kahu Kayaks offers multi-day freedom rentals, and you can camp overnight at Department of Conservation (DOC) campsites within Abel Tasman National Park.
