Children
Children are welcome on all our tours if accompanied by a parent or carer. We accept children from 3 years upwards.
If you are planning to paddle with a young child we will try to select the best conditions so they have a great time. This means we may suggest that you rebook on another date if the weather is not be suitable for a young child, even if it is suitable for older children and adults.
Children can kayak without a parent/carer afloat on our
children’s courses.
We have child sized kayaks, paddles,wetsuits and buoyancy aids available. There is nothing worse than seeing children having to wear poorly fitting (and potentially unsafe) adult sized equipment.
We often recommend under 11 years paddle a tandem with a parent or carer, though the child sized “Kia” are often suitable for the more active young person.
*To obtain the child discount the adult pays £37.50 and needs to accompany the young people.
