Fun sunny afternoon on the water David was very calm, professional and when needed reassuring. Very knowledgeable about the area and what we were seeing. Wonderful to see Jersey from a different perspective. Would highly recommend.

An enjoyable experience A great experience kayaking along the south coast in some glorious conditions. It provides a very different view of the island and the scenery was accompanied by lots of knowledge about the area as well. It was well run and safety was well covered. The time flew by.

Cool experience, knowledgeable and experienced guide It was a very cool experience to go kayaking in Jersey. I had originally booked a sunset kayak tour but due to the weather conditions it got rescheduled to a during the day kayak after the orginial date. David had e-mailed me about it and asked me if the rescheduled date was okay which it was. The launch location was Bouley Bay. Before we went into the water David gave a long instruction about how to use the paddle during the kayaking which I thought to be a bit too long as I think it is something you learn by doing. But I suppose that’s his way of making sure he prepared everyone well. The kayaking itself was fun and David was knowledgeable about the various sea birds and jellyfish. I’d felt in safe hands as David seemed to have a lot of experience I’d definitely recommend Kayak Nomad :)

Journée Kayak de rêve à Jersey :) Nous avons passé une superbe journée en kayak avec David, un vrai passionné ! Il transmet avec enthousiasme son amour pour ce sport et pour son île, en nous faisant découvrir l’histoire de Jersey, sa faune et ses paysages époustouflants. Pédagogue et attentif, il s’adapte parfaitement à tous les niveaux. Une belle façon de découvrir Jersey sous un angle unique. Aller y sans hésiter !

Great experience with Nomad Kayaking My daughter (17) and I (a little bit older) enjoyed our kayaking experience with Namad Kayaking. We were given a choice of location but were pleased that were chose Bouley Bay. The scenery was beautiful and the sea crystal clear. David gave us initial instruction and safety gear. Our bags were stored safely in the Nomad Kayaking van. We felt safe on our adventure which was our first ever kayaking experience. David took photos throughout the session which he shared later. We would recommend Nomad Kayaking for a different view of the Jersey coast.

Cheaper than other kayak tours on Jersey & certainly the most detailed instructions I've had on how to Kayak, nice to be shown properly even though I've done it a few times in Spain / Portugal, you can tell he's a proper instructor which was good. The tour was informative too, only disappointment was having to load & unload the kayak yourself..maybe I got lucky the other times!

We booked a sea kayak trip along the north coast of Jersey, starting from Bonne Nuit Bay, and it was excellent from start to finish. Booking was easy and David, our guide, replied quickly to every message. The route is long enough to really take in the scenery, and at lunchtime we stopped for a picnic on a beach you can't reach on foot — a real highlight. David is full of local detail and history, which made the paddle genuinely interesting rather than just a nice trip out. My partner and I had a great time and came away seeing the island from a completely different angle. Highly recommended.

Very nice outing with David who is knowledgeable and happy to share facts about Jersey and it's coastline. We certainly wouldn't have seen so much of the coast had we not been encouraged on by our guide!

David gave me the impression of a truly professional coach. Safety was always his first priority. He explained everything patiently and clearly, helping people make the right choices without any pressure. I joined the 10 a.m. Sit-on-Top Kayak Tour, and it turned out to be the perfect way to spend my last day in Jersey. While paddling along St Brelade's Bay, David introduced us to the local landmarks and shared interesting stories about the area. He was knowledgeable, patient and encouraging throughout the tour. Above all, what impressed me most was his genuine kindness. Thank you very much, David. If I visit Jersey again next summer, I would love to paddle with you again.

My family absolutely loved our kayak tour from St Brelade’s Bay yesterday with David. He was fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable and great at making the experience especially fun for the boys. We learned so much, but the tour never felt rushed; David was happy to go at our pace and was incredibly flexible throughout. It was a brilliant experience from start to finish, and one we’ll all remember. Thank you, David! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jersey.
