Mother's and Father's Day Kayak Gift Guide
It's that time of the year again, where we celebrate the ones who love us most, our parents. Most Mothers and Fathers will claim they don't need anything but imagine the look on their eyes when you show up with a brand new kayak, for fun, for health and for the love of the great outdoors. If this is the year you want to surprise them, you've come to the right place. The big question is, which kayak?
Well, we came across Feelfree's blog which highlights the top 3 kayaks for both Mom and Dad, poached their suggestions and added a few more we recommend.

The Kayak For Both
Looking for something both of your parents can share? Take a look at the Lure II Tandem Kayak. But this isn’t last summer’s rental kayak they flipped before they could even get launched. This tandem kayak is incredibly stable with a whopping capacity of 500 lbs combined with not one, but two Gravity Seats. The combination of the two will keep them paddling all day long.
