Paddle Canada (formerly Canadian Recreational Canoeing Association), was conceived in 1971 as a result of the perceived need that recreational paddling enthusiasts from across Canada required a national body to co-ordinate the efforts of those involved in non-competitive canoeing and kayaking. Today, the Association acts as the national office for ten provincial and three territorial associations, as well as 2.3 million recreational paddlers.
Recently, the Paddle Canada developed recreational river kayaking and sea kayaking standards on a national basis and implemented an instructor base to deliver certification programs nation wide. Ecomarine Coastal Kayaking school has been working with the Paddle Canada to develop the sea kayaking curriculum into a series of excellent sea kayaking programs. We now offer the full range of Paddle Canada programing, from Flatwater to level four recreational paddling, as well as instructor level training. Please see our beginner level, intermediate level and professional development programing for more information.
