Islander Koa S Beach

The Islander Koa S Beach is a tough sit-on-top for groups and rental, at the beach or paddling on local waterways.

The Koa’s compact design means it's easy to handle on or off the water, with a comfortable cockpit that fits a range of paddlers.

But don’t be fooled, the Koa cuts smoothly through the water and jumps easily over the surf – you’ll feel the performance of a much bigger boat.

Outfitting + Features

Shaped for the surf
The Koa's bow jumps over waves and cuts through choppy water. In the surf, water sheds quickly from the deck, putting you in control.

Contoured integral seat
Comfortable to paddle without the added foam backrest, the seat area is sculpted to give you support and a good sitting position.

Ergonomic mould-in footbrace
Four foot positions with heel and toe support so that all paddlers, large or small, can feel comfortable, connected and in control.

Side, bow and stern grab handles
Smooth, simple and strong; flush handles that let you carry your kayak like a suitcase, drag on or off water, and help lift it up or down from a roof rack.

Mount point for phone/camera
Capture the moment or record you journey – a 6 mm threaded attachment point compatible with a number of different accessory mounts (camera mount not included).

Bow bungee paddle park
Elastic bungee cord at the front of the Koa gives you somewhere to easily stash your paddle or stow a drybag.

Stern tankwell
Space to stow things out of the way right behind you in the tankwell. The bungee cord will keep things from moving around and is a good place to clip your drybag into.

Self-bailing scupper holes
Any water that ends up in your sitting area will drain away through the self draining scupper holes. Supplied with rubber scupper-bungs to plug these holes if you need to.

Drain bung
From time to time, should any water end up inside your sit-on-top, you can drain the water out just by standing it on end.

Drink/accessory holder
With bungeed cord fastenings, this spot, easily reachable from where you paddle, is perfect for a water bottle.

D-ring accessory attachment points
Sturdy stainless steel clip points for attaching your seat or other accessories.

Recycled Version
Made from 100% recycled plastic, sourced from kayak manufacture
