We have years of experience on what works well for sea kayaking expeditions and what kind of food doesn’t work well or should be avoided.

Lunch

• Bagels (they last about a week, check dates)
• Pitta bread and wraps (check dates)
• Sliced continental hard cheese (Emmenthal, Edam, Gouda etc)
• Salami, dry-cured or smoked meat
• Apples
• Dried fruit
• Nuts
• Other non-perishable or food that doesn’t need to be kept refrigerated

Snacks

• Chocolate bars
• Cereal bars

What does not work?

• Bananas (they bruise too easily)
• Soft fruit (they go off too quickly)
• Ready-made rolls, wraps or sandwiches (goes off or soggy)
• Yoghurts
• Cheese blocks
• Sliced cheddar (they stick together when warm and crumble)
• Ham, beef or similar cold cuts
• Anything that needs to be refrigerated (except for food mentioned above)
