This is weird. I have been pretty sea sick on a few of the multi-day trips I have been on, but never on my kayak. I had thought that it was because on the boat you are fighting the rocking, and on the kayak you are just rolling with it. But I guess that is not the case?

The secret to not getting seasick (aside from previous remedies mentioned) is to keep your eyes on the horizon. When you are looking down and rolling around your equilibrium is messed up and your mind doesn't know what way is up.

Keep your eyes on the horizon, breathe fresh air, stay hydrated and cool, and start the day off with a decent breakfast (you are exercising after all).
