Five Star Gift Ideas

For your mom who enjoys sea kayaking and paddleboarding, there are plenty of great gift options that will cater to her adventurous side. Here are a few ideas that she might appreciate:

1. Waterproof Gear: One essential item for any water-based activity is waterproof gear. Consider getting her a high-quality dry bag or dry box to keep her belongings safe and dry while she's out on the water. This way, she can confidently bring her phone, wallet, and other personal items without the risk of them getting wet.

2. Safety Essentials: Safety should always be a priority, especially for water activities. Look into getting her a personal flotation device (PFD) specifically designed for kayaking or paddleboarding. Since your mom is already into these activities, she may already have a PFD, but it's always a good idea to make sure she has an updated and comfortable one.

3. Outdoor Clothing: Invest in some UV-protective apparel that is designed to keep her cool, dry, and protected from the sun. Look for lightweight, quick-drying shirts or rash guards with sun protection factor (SPF). Additionally, consider buying her a hat or visor with a neck flap to shield her face and neck from the sun's rays.

4. Equipment Upgrade: If your mom has been using the same kayak or paddleboard for a while, she might appreciate an equipment upgrade. Research the latest models and consider surprising her with a new, higher-performing kayak or paddleboard that matches her needs and preferences.

5. Skill or Technique Classes: Enhancing her skills and knowledge can be a great gift option too. Look for local kayak or paddleboarding classes or workshops where she can learn new techniques, improve her abilities, or even try out different styles of these activities. Not only will she learn something new, but it will also provide her with new experiences and opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals.

6. Exploration Guides: If your mom enjoys exploring new areas on her kayak or paddleboard, consider giving her some guidebooks or maps of coastal or river areas she hasn't explored yet. This way, she can plan new adventures and discover hidden gems in various locations.

7. Photography Accessories: If your mom enjoys capturing moments while she's out on the water, consider gifting her some photography accessories. A waterproof phone case, GoPro camera, or a floating selfie stick can help her capture stunning photos and videos of her sea kayaking and paddleboarding experiences.

Remember, the best gift is something that aligns with your mom's interests and passions. By considering her love for sea kayaking and paddleboarding, you can choose a gift that complements her outdoor adventures and brings a smile to her face.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

“I made a map for my mums birthday and she absolutely loved it. Definitely buying another one soon, probably for another family member or friend”
