We are pleased to announce that the club will again offer some beginner’s kayaking courses this year. These will run on Wednesday evenings from our base at Baltic Wharf on Bristol Harbour, and run for four weeks. We are running three courses and there will be eight places available on each course. On successfully completing the course you’ll receive the British Canoeing Paddle Start award.

The courses are intended for adults who are thinking about taking up kayaking with the club and want to learn basic kayaking skills in order to get started. It’s important that you can attend all four sessions and be there at promptly at the 6.30 start time. All equipment will be provided. The cost is £90.

We are unable to offer places to those under 18.
