Answer:

The average person burns 375 – 475 calories per hour kayaking.

The number of calories burned kayaking depends on your weight, the distance and speed you kayak, and difficulty of terrain. A 200-pound (90.8kg) person will burn 477 calories per hour kayaking with moderate effort. A 150-pound person will burn 358 calories per hour with the same activity.
