Canoeing & Kayaking

Canoes and kayaks are versatile and agile craft with a real go-anywhere ability which allows you to explore the lakeshore from a completely different perspective.

We have a range of craft which are suitable for everyone. Our sit-on-top kayaks are fun, stable and easy to paddle and are available in both single and doubles boats. Open canoes are great for longer journeys, with their excellent load carrying capability; why not bring a picnic and make a day of it! A fleet of new closed-cockpit kayaks will be available for tuition sessions during the 2008 season.
