Sea kayaks are specially designed boats used for paddling on open water, such as oceans and large lakes. They are typically longer and narrower than other types of kayaks, which helps them glide smoothly through waves and currents. Sea kayaks often have a closed cockpit to keep paddlers dry and are built to handle rougher conditions. These kayaks are made from various materials, including plastic, fiberglass, and composite materials, making them lightweight yet durable. Many sea kayaks come equipped with storage compartments for gear, allowing paddlers to embark on longer trips and explore coastal areas or remote islands.
