A leisurely Kayak trip for those with or without experience.

These Kayaks are easier to get control of than a canoe.

Max group size 12 people.

The instructors role is to ensure everyone gets a degree of control over their kayak and safe passage along the canal whilst respecting other users / wildlife / canal boat.
