Your Foundation for Water Safety and Rescue Confidence.
ISKGA Safety & rescue Course
The ISKGA (International Sea Kayak Guide Alliance) Sea Kayak Safety & Rescue module provides the essential foundation for developing sea kayak safety, rescue, and extraction skills.
Participants will practice key skills such as risk assessment, self-rescues, advanced assisted rescues, towing methods, swimming techniques, and throw-tow rescues from both kayak and shoreline positions.
The course focuses on building strong foundational techniques in flat to moderate water conditions while developing confidence, competence, and adherence to strict rescue protocols. These skills are further reinforced and applied in more dynamic environments, including swell, breaking waves, and moving water.
This course is ideal for paddlers looking to improve their personal safety skills or prepare for leadership roles. It is also a prerequisite for the ISKGA Incident Management program.
