Canoeing/Kayaking

Kayaking

Our single seat kayaks are modern, smaller and very manoeuvrable which are great for games and exploring on the sea, as well as improving skills and boosting confidence. We have great whitewater venues close by for those wanting to progress their moving water skills. We can also deliver British Canoe Union star awards for personal performance. Kayaking, like canoeing, is a module of the GCSE, BTEC and A-Level PE syllabus and is a great way for students to increase their overall grades whilst taking part in an exciting new sport.

Sit-on-Top Kayaking

Sit-on-top kayaks are designed to go straight and fast. They are stable and easy to sail, there's no problem with capsizing you simply fall off. They're a great kayak to explore the lake with and play games on, which always boosts confidence and skills.
