Canoe-10

What is it?

A traditional paddle sport using Open (Canadian) Canoes, propelled with a single bladed paddle. Canoes can be joined together for more stability, if needed, and are usually crewed by teams of 2-4 people but can also be paddled solo.

What to expect on a Canoe session?

 

Beginning on site, you will be issued with a wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet and paddle before heading down to our boat store where we will give you a land-based introduction to the boat and instructions on how to use your paddle. It will then be a team effort to carry your canoe the short distance to our own slipway and the water’s edge. From there we will launch the boat and start by getting to grips with paddling in a sheltered setting before we can venture further afield. Our canoes are the perfect craft for a journey around the harbour as well as for jumping in the water and playing games. Upon returning to the centre we finish with a nice hot shower.

Our sessions are tailored to the participants needs and designed to make best use of the weather and the harbour.

 

What will I need to wear?

 

  • Swimwear under the wetsuit

  • Footwear that you can get wet.
  • Wetsuit , Helmet, Buoyancy Aid and Windproof Cagoule (All provided by Grenville House)
