(If you are finding something cheaper you can see my another article Top 7 inexpensive recreational kayak under 250 and 8 Cheap Recreational Kayak Under 300 ) It’s a “comfortable” experience on a recreational kayak.īack to the main topic, best recreational kayak under 500 dollars. This is a nice feature not only for beginning paddlers but also for anyone who loves to fish or take photographs from their boat.

Recreational kayaks are also a couple inches wider than their touring counterparts, which give them a little extra stability. They’re perfect for the beginners and other people who enjoy paddling on the relatively calm water. The most obvious advantage of recreational kayaks is that they’re quite a bit cheaper than touring one’s due to its material. They are 10 to 12 feet long and have 27 to 30 inches wide at the cockpit. A recreational kayak is normally made of polyethylene, plastic ABS or composite material.
