One of my favourite things about sea kayaking is discovering something new about a familiar place. On our recent Tiderace Skills course, we explored this narrow gap between islands to find a great wave to practice surfing. We took it in turns to catch the wave and watched as it changed shape and size over the hour we were there. Here Linda shows us how to surf in style! | Wild Isles Sea Kayaking
