Recreational kayaks are defined as boats that are perfect for the beginner paddler, or for those people that just want something for short paddles every so often. These boats are popular with fisherman and photographers due to the large cockpits and rock-solid stability in the water. Closed cockpit designs will be better suited for spring, summer and fall paddling, whereas sit-on-top's will be best used in the warm summer months.
