Adult Half Day Kayak Experience

Adult Half Day Kayak Experience

Try out one of the fastest growing water sports at this purpose built boating centre conveniently located in the centre of the UK. Sessions are tailored for complete beginners or those with some previous experience to ensure everyone an enjoyable time on the water. During the session you can expect to learn the basics of kayaking so you can learn control, speed and technique. There may even be some water based games to test you new skills!

Agenda

Following registration at the boat centre you will meet your instructor. They will then fit you with your equipment including buoyancy aid; cag (waterproof top) boat and paddle (spraydecks are available for experienced paddlers). The Kayaks are very stable and designed for tuition so you are unlikely to roll over unless you try hard! A full safety briefing and explanation in the use of the equipment is provided before going onto the water. The session will take place on a calm stretch of the River Leam. You will taught how to control the boat so you can enjoy a river trip up though the Victorian Gardens & into the nature reserve.
