Founded in 1995 in Prince Edward County, Ontario, Clearwater Design is a family-owned staple of the Canadian paddling scene. While other brands chase complex racing hulls, Clearwater focuses on what matters most to the everyday paddler: stability, durability, and comfort. Every kayak is rotomolded in Canada using high-linear polyethylene, creating a seamless, “bombproof” shell that can handle rocky shorelines and shallow riverbeds with ease. Whether you’re a beginner looking for your first boat or a seasoned explorer seeking a reliable touring partner, Clearwater Design builds kayaks that feel like a natural extension of the water.
