About Us
Who we are
Jeff Allen and Simon Osborne are well known for their epic circumnavigations. Between them they have kayaked over 10,000Km experiencing nearly every condition the sea could throw at them. Their amazing knowledge and experience is what makes SKC unique. Both are keen to pass on this knowledge to allow others to experience the environments and places they have been. SKC uses the best equipment available for all of their courses enabling you to be comfortable out on the water. We have a variety of fibreglass kayaks, Lendal and Werner paddles. We offer learning experiences for all levels of ability. Our location enables us to find the perfect conditions to develop your skills. There is sheltered water when we need to look at fine stroke work and surf and tidal races when rough water handling or incident management is the order of the day. Whatever course you want to do with SKC we make every effort to make sure you get the best experience possible. Please take a look at our gallery to get an idea for the environment we have to play in.
Where are we?
SKC is based in Falmouth, Cornwall. The area offers the perfect location for exploring the many beautiful sections of coastline Cornwall has to offer. The Cornish Peninsular has over 300miles coastline including the Lizard Peninsular and Lands End. The wildlife and cliff lines amaze us every time we venture out onto the water.
