Get on the water is a two-hour supported session, giving you time to practise, try different craft and enjoy being out on the water. You can have a go at our course, join in with optional challenges or ask an instructor for help with a particular skill.
Coaching is available throughout the session, with opportunities to work individually or in a small group. There is no fixed lesson to follow, so you can choose what you would like to focus on and take part in the activities that interest you. Depending on the group and conditions, there may also be opportunities for a guided paddle into other permitted docks.
