Kayaking and canoeing, on oceans, rivers and seas, can be dangerous if not undertaken in a safe manner and should not be undertaken without proper training, experience and the correct use of relevant safety equipment.

Ocean Paddler and its publisher (Masik Publishing) cannot therefore accept any responsibility for any injury or accident which may occur as a result of any advice or photographic images published in the magazine or on this website.

Any form of outdoors activity carries with it risks, and it's for you to understand those risks and decide whether you personally are prepared to accept them before undertaking any activity. Kayaking is no different.
