Loved your paddle and fancy coming back for more? We run social paddles every Thursday evening through the summer, with a few extra events during the cooler months.

Already paddled with us? If you've done a SUP session with Discover Paddling, you're already part of the community- welcome back! If it's been since before 2024, we'd recommend a guided refresher session with us first, just to blow off the cobwebs.
 

Experienced paddler but new to us? If you're confident on a SUP or in a kayak and can handle yourself on the water, we'd love to have you. You'll just need one of the following:

• A Paddle UK qualification (Paddle Award or above)

• Formal coaching from elsewhere

• Or come and join us for a Discover Paddling session first
   

These sessions are for paddlers who already know what they're doing and want to explore new stretches of water with like-minded people. You'll need to be 18+ and confident paddling independently, whether that's kayak, SUP or canoe, as these sessions aren't guided.
 

Got your own kit? Great, just let us know you're joining through our booking system. A PFD is a must on every session. Don't have kit? Don't worry, we offer SUP rental for £15 per social paddle.
 

You paddle at your own pace, with one of our instructors out on the water keeping an eye on things. It's a relaxed one, and most of us head to a local pub afterwards for a well-earned drink.
 

We paddle at different locations throughout the season, all listed on the booking link and in our Facebook group.
