Kayak Sales
Thinking about buying a kayak? We can help!
Seattle area paddling often includes wind, current, boat wake, and open crossings. At NWOC we specialize in day touring and sea kayaks designed to handle these conditions and more whether you're paddling on Lake Union, Puget Sound, or beyond the Salish Sea.
If you are comparing lengths, deciding between day touring and full touring, or trying to understand which kayak best fits your goals, start with our Touring Kayaks in Seattle page.
Demo Paddles on Lake Union
One of the best ways to choose a kayak is to go for a paddle! A side by side comparison ensures the right fit and performance for your paddling style.
We offer free 20 minute demos of the entire line of Delta Kayaks from our convenient docks on Lake Union. Longer rentals are also available at our standard rental rate. We walk through fit, intended routes, storage needs, and progression so you leave with confidence.
Contact us today to schedule a demo.
We typically stock the full lineup of Delta touring kayaks throughout the season. Our inventory page shows current models and availability.
We offer local pickup at Lake Union and delivery options throughout the greater Seattle area and ferry-accessible locations. We do not ship kayaks. For customers in Alaska, we are able to package and deliver kayaks to AML and other Seattle area freight forwarding services.
Our delivery process is straightforward and designed to make purchasing simple, even if you are not located in central Seattle.
Every season we sell some of our rental and demo equipment to make room for new. Kayaks, drysuits, paddles and more are available throughout the year. Check our used page for current prices and availability.
