A great gift idea for your friend who loves kayaking would be a waterproof dry bag that can keep their belongings safe and dry while they're out kayaking. You could also consider getting them a kayak paddle leash or a comfortable kayak seat cushion for added comfort during long paddles. Another idea is to look into a guided kayaking tour in a nearby river or lake that they haven't explored yet. A waterproof action camera or a GoPro would also make a fantastic gift that allows them to capture their kayaking adventures and share them with others.
Or you can get her/him a star map with an important date you share.
