Always wanted to give Stand Up Paddleboarding a go? This is your chance!
Join us for a fun, 90-minute beginner session designed for first timers.
We’ll kick things off with a land-based induction and safety briefing, followed by a hands-on water session where you’ll learn the basics—all under the expert guidance of our fully qualified, insured coaches and instructors.
The session includes paddleboard hire and buoyancy aids, so you’re all set for adventure.
A wetsuit is recommended as you may well get wet! If you’ve got your own, bring it along. If not, we have a selection of C-Skins/Sola wetsuits available to hire for £5 per adult and £3 per child—just be sure to reserve them when booking. We also have wetsuit shoes available (size 4 and up) for hire. Wet shoes are a must!
Minimum age for SUP is 8 years, and this session is open to all ages and fitness levels—whether you’re new to the sport or just looking to brush up on your skills.
Instructor-to-participant ratio is 6:1, so you’ll get plenty of attention.
A couple of things to note:
- No dogs on the SUP boards (sorry, pups!)
- Parking: There’s been a price increase for the pay-and-display bays at the Slipway, and the machines now only accept card payments.
Ready to give it a go? We can’t wait to see you on the water!
