At Salty Cosmos we basically differentiate between three different types of programmes:
Courses, tours and sea kayak holidays
A course is always a programme with learning content on one or more specific aspects or subject areas from the world of sea kayaking. They are defined in the text of the respective programme description. It doesn't matter whether this course takes place by the sea or in Switzerland or perhaps simply online. At Salty Cosmos there is a large selection of courses on all sorts of topics related to sea kayaking: week-long programmes at the sea, beginner courses on the lake, rolling courses, safety courses, theory courses, paddle building courses, etc. The aim of every course is: you learn something. So our focus is clearly on coaching.
A tour is always a travel and experience-oriented programme, very similar to a hike, but in a sea kayak. Our tours are all multi-day programmes that are carried out with luggage, tent and sleeping bag and where a different place to spend the night awaits you every evening. These are often campsites, but it can also happen that we bivouack in the wild on the coast or on a deserted island, unless this is expressly forbidden. After all, that's the appeal of the whole thing.
Finally, we also have sea kayak holidays in our program. Sea kayak holidays are neither tour nor course. Instead, these are programmes with a fixed base camp that are simply about fun, application and cool day trips or other activities, such as rock hopping or (kayak) surfing sessions. Here you don't have to learn anything or achieve anything, you can just join in and have fun.
