Due to the unique materials and shape of the clear kayaks, our manufacturer has provided a strict limit of 250 lbs per person.

There can be no more than 425 lbs of combined weight per kayak—2 people.

Please call with questions concerning the weight restrictions. Depending on the number of kayaks available per tour, we may be able to accommodate single paddlers to accommodate the 425 combined limit. (Single paddlers can still not exceed the 250-weight limit.)
