Canoeing and kayaking are both water sports that involve paddling a small boat, but they have some key differences. Canoes are typically open on top and paddled with a single-bladed paddle, while kayaks are closed on top and paddled with a double-bladed paddle. Canoes are usually larger and offer more space for gear or passengers, while kayaks are more maneuverable and often faster.
