England · CANOES & KAYAKS
Good canoes & kayaks tours fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Paddle Newquay’s Atlantic coast by sit-on-top kayak, exploring caves, coves and cliffs with a qualified guide in a small group.
“James our instructor was amazing! Really great company, safe and knowledgeable it was an absolute pleasure spending time on the water with him!”
Paddle Devon’s sea caves, spot wildlife, hunt fossils, and toast marshmallows on this three-hour English Riviera kayak safari.
“Kieran was a friendly and helpful guide. The kayaking through the caves was fun and always felt safe. Unfortunately we didn;t see much wildlife ... but we did have toasted marshmellows on the beach! Thanks Kieran”
Paddle Derwentwater near Keswick with an instructor, supplied gear, mountain views, and wildlife. A beginner-friendly three-hour outing.
“Woody brought the gear and guided us through a really fun paddle experience on Derwent Water. With hurricane Agnes slowly making her way to the Lake District, Woody guided us out onto the water. The winds picked up by the end of the outing, but Woody had engineered our trajectory such that we were blown back to our starting point by the gently increasing breeze.”
Paddle Bude Canal on a guided two-hour SUP trip with gear included, beginner instruction, small groups, and calm Cornish scenery.
“Great experience did this with my 15yr old son we both enjoyed it James the instructor was a great guy and made our experience enjoyable all the equipment was spot on and the canal was so peaceful”
Paddle Teignmouth’s coast and estuary on a friendly four-hour sea kayak tour with equipment, expert guidance, and a beach break.
“The tour with Dave was great. He really knew the sea and the area and we felt very safe with him. I want to thank Dave for all he did on this tour and his fantastic experience really made the day. I would really recommend Dave and this tour, Edyta & Mike”
Pick the kind of day first, then the best of it in England.
