Enjoying the sport of kayaking takes more than a kayak. You'll also need the right kayaking equipment.

When you venture out to purchase a kayak, don't forget to stock up on all of the essential kayak equipment. The kayak itself is secondary. To make sure that you don't spend your entire budget on the boat, and be forced to settle for second-rate equipment, always purchase your kayak equipment first.

Your kayaking experience will be far less enjoyable if you're up the creek with a poor paddle.

Be sure to have these items on your kayak equipment-shopping list:

* Paddles * Paddle float * Life jackets * Wet suit * Footwear * Spray skirts * Dry bags

If you plan to buy and use a kayak, these pieces are absolutely essential.

Some pieces of kayaking equipment are necessary, others can be considered optional. The most important pieces of must-have kayaking equipment are the paddles. Without good paddles, you'll have trouble navigating your kayak and will not enjoy the experience as much. On the other hand, every kayaker does not require wet suits. Wet suits are only necessary if you are planning on kayaking in cold weather or water. Extreme kayak lovers and professional kayakers generally use Wetsuits.

Life jackets are vitally important to kayakers of every skill level. Even the most skilled kayaker will hit rough water or tip the boat. With no flotation device or life jacket, serious injury or death can occur. Kayaking without a lifejacket is dangerous and against the law. Ensure that you and your passenger have properly fitted lifejackets.

Everyone can find kayaking to be a fun and rewarding sport. With the right kayaking equipment, your adventure over stream, lake and river can be enjoyable and worry-free.

Make your list, and check it twice. Be sure to invest in top quality kayak equipment, and then go shopping for your boat. When you venture out in your new kayak, you'll be ready for any adventure.
