ABOUT KAYAKS & CANOES
When it comes enjoying the Great Outdoors, what's a great way to hit the ground running? To hit the water paddling. Whether you prefer to take in scenery while floating calmer waters, power through whitecaps, or discover new depths of exploration offshore, you'll find the right vessel for your lifestyle at Bass Pro Shops.
SHOPPING KAYAKS & CANOES
Few sights and sounds can beat the near silence of a pristine vista. Woodland lakes or lazy rivers can offer the best venue for unbeatable serenity, and a classic canoe can give the best seats in the house. The stability, smooth tracking, and comfort of a modern-age canoe such as the Old Town Saranac 160 provides your ticket to tranquility. Forget the days of bare boards for seats and a formless void for the cockpit. Modern canoes like the Sarcanac 160 have contoured seats with backs and built-in cooler/livewell storage, giving you and a second boater classic and contemporary benefits.
Kayakers and kayak anglers seeking the best kayak in the world know Ascend kayaks set the standard. Recreational kayakers and anglers often turn to longer styles such as the Ascend 12T Sit-on-Top Kayak, with ultimate primary and secondary stability for easy fishing. Kayakers ready for rougher waters should consider a shorter model such as the Ascend 10T Sit-on-Top Kayak or Ascend 9R Sport Sit-on-Top Kayak. Their nimbler forms offer the best maneuverability on the water so you can navigate any conditions confidently.
Fans of all water types, from inshore to offshore and open water, often opt for the freedom and customizable experience of a stand-up paddleboard. Today's SUPs give you the ability to paddle, fish, bring gear, and take in surroundings at your own pace. HO Sports and Lifetime Horizon offer versatile SUPs from rigid construction to inflatable models to complement your plans.

A travel cart can help you move your kayak, canoe, or any smaller craft across terrain easier, eliminating pre-trip fatigue. Dry bags prevent soaked gear, and utility cases secure valuables and tackle.
