Before taking your children out to sea, please be sure to follow the following 5 safety rules:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Wear a life jacket at all times:<\/strong> Regardless of whether children know how to swim or not, they must wear an appropriately sized life jacket at all times during water activities.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pay attention to weather changes:<\/strong> Pay close attention to the weather forecast from the Observatory before departure. If you encounter thunderstorm warnings, strong wind signals or severe weather, you should cancel your trip immediately.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Act within your capabilities:<\/strong> Adjust the itinerary according to the child&#8217;s physical fitness and condition of the day, and do not force yourself to go to a destination that is too far away.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take sun protection measures:<\/strong> The ultraviolet rays reflected by the sea surface are very strong, so children must apply waterproof sunscreen, wear sun protection clothing (Rash Guard) and wear a hat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Accompanied by an adult at all times:<\/strong> At least one adult who is familiar with water must accompany you at all times and pay attention to the children&#8217;s condition at all times.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hong_Kongs_top_5_popular_canoe_and_stand-up_board_recommendations_for_parents_and_children\"><\/span>Hong Kong\u2019s top 5 popular canoe and stand-up board recommendations for parents and children<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Hong Kong has many bays with excellent water quality and calm waves, which are very suitable for family water activities.

Here are 3 of the most common myths:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Misunderstanding 1: If children know how to swim, they should not use life jackets.<\/strong> In fact, the sea surface conditions are changing rapidly. Even if a child knows how to swim, if he falls into the water, he may get into an accident due to panic or physical exhaustion, so a life jacket is absolutely indispensable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Misunderstanding 2: Choose a place with big wind and waves to pursue excitement.<\/strong> The first experience should focus on building confidence. Choosing calm waters such as Tai Mei Tuk or Guanyin Bay can reduce children&#8217;s fear and make it easier for them to enjoy the fun.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Misunderstanding 3: Ignoring sun protection and hydration.<\/strong> It feels cool on the water, and it is easy to ignore the strong ultraviolet rays. Parents must reapply sunscreen on their children regularly and encourage them to drink more water to prevent heat stroke.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Parent-child_water_sports_equipment_list\"><\/span>Parent-child water sports equipment list<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Prepare enough equipment to make the event go more smoothly. Here is a simple gear list for reference:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Essential equipment:<\/strong> Sun protection clothing (long-sleeved is preferred), water sports shoes\/white rice fish (to protect your feet from being cut by the rocks), waterproof bag (to hold mobile phones and valuables), enough drinking water, sunscreen (ocean-friendly formula), change of clothes and towels.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optional equipment:<\/strong> Sunglasses (with anti-fall rope), hat, snacks (to replenish energy), snorkeling goggles (if going to Xiangsi Bay and other places).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you want to know more detailed equipment preparation, you can read this article <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.holimood.com\/%E3%80%90%E7%8D%A8%E6%9C%A8%E8%88%9F%E6%94%BB%E7%95%A5%E3%80%917%E5%80%8B%E6%96%B0%E6%89%8B%E5%88%9D%E7%8E%A9%E5%BF%85%E5%8E%BB%E7%8D%A8%E6%9C%A8%E8%88%9F%E8%B7%AF%E7%B7%9A\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">[Canoeing Guide] 8 must-go canoeing routes for beginners + equipment and clothing preparation list<\/a>\u3002<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"At_what_age_can_children_play_canoeing\"><\/span>At what age can children play canoeing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Generally speaking, children aged 3 years and above can already ride with an adult in a two- or three-person canoe. However, the most important thing is that the children are not afraid of water and can sit quietly on the boat. If you are paddling a solo canoe by yourself, it is usually recommended that you are over 8 years old and have sufficient physical strength.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_play_upright_if_I_dont_know_how_to_swim\"><\/span>Can I play upright if I don\u2019t know how to swim?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>OK! As long as you wear a suitable life jacket at all times and choose calm waters (such as Tai Mei Tuk), you can experience the fun of SUP even if you don&#8217;t know how to swim. Beginners can start from a kneeling or sitting position and slowly adapt to balance before trying to stand.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_parent-child_canoe_has_the_flattest_edge\"><\/span>Which parent-child canoe has the flattest edge?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Single canoe rentals at Hoi Ha Wan in Sai Kung and Kwun Yin Bay in Cheung Chau are relatively cheap, starting from HK$80 on weekdays. If you are a family, renting a family-style three-person canoe at Guanyin Bay in Cheung Chau (HK$150\/hour) will be a very cost-effective choice.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_to_bring_my_own_equipment\"><\/span>Do I need to bring my own equipment?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most Holimood water activity rental packages already include a canoe\/stand-up board, paddle and life jacket. You only need to bring your own personal clothing, sun protection, water sports shoes and a waterproof bag.
