About the coach
Jake’s connection to the water started early. Growing up near the coast, he spent most of his childhood exploring shorelines, learning currents, and understanding how weather shapes the water. Today, as Kayora’s Head Kayak Guide, Jake leads some of our most scenic and adventurous routes — from hidden coves to wildlife-rich coastal paths. His sessions are known for being both educational and exciting, giving paddlers the confidence to explore safely. Jake believes that kayaking isn’t just about movement — it’s about awareness, control, and learning how to read the water.
