Adult Paddling Sessions

Sunsetters runs every Monday evening, 7 – 8pm, during the warmer months of the year (April to September).

Sunseekers takes over during the colder months, and runs from 10am – 11am every other Saturday.

Both of these groups welcome a mixture of craft, although the majority tends to be kayaks or canoes. They both explore the section of river local to us with the aim of enjoying a relaxing paddle. Anyone is welcome, we have some regular paddlers and a lot of new faces through out the year, meaning there are a range of abilities with each session. These are led by an instructor who will support and develop your skills as you paddle.

SUP Club is our dedicated stand up paddleboarding social group. It runs every Wednesday  7 – 8pm during the warmer months (April – September). £10 per person.

This group aims to explore our local section of river whilst developing our participant’s SUP skills. You can enjoy a relaxing evening paddle, or have a play around in the water on a hot summer’s evening!

Going out on the water with an instructor for your first time is always a good idea. All of our instructors are national governing body qualified and have a wealth of knowledge across a variety of disciplines, being able to provide, kayak, canoe and paddleboard lessons.

For your first time on the water, they are particularly useful for talking you through your chosen craft, teaching you how to safely get on and off the water, and teaching you the basics of how to get around while on the water.

Alternatively, some people prefer not to be coached too much, and would rather have a guided tour on the river, having an instructor with them to feel more confident.

Coached taster sessions can be run 1:1 or up to 1:8 if you would like to go out as a group, and can be booked online.

If you feel confident to go out on the water without an instructor, we offer this rental-like session. Groups and individuals can use:

• Sit-on-top kayaks
• Paddleboards
• Katakanus

The only restriction is that you must stay within sight of the building, giving you a 1000m stretch of river to play with.

Pay & Play is available all year, at a range of times throughout the day.

Under 18s can participate, but must have an adult on the water with them.
