Get Ready for the Water with Paddle and Land Adventures UK

Once your booking is confirmed (payment and booking form complete), you will be sent a confirmation email and about one week before the session you will be email containing joining instructions.

At the start of a session, we'll have a quick chat about what you want to achieve and agree some session goals. Everyone onboards new knowledge at different speeds and in different way so we'll tailor the session to your enthusiasm levels and some agreed goals. Every session will be different. We'll possibly do some land based stuff before launching if needed, we'll have a quick warm up and get on the water for paddling. At the end of the session, we'll get off the water, have a quick recap and see whats next for your paddling journey. 

A buoyancy aid and old trainers/closed in footwear is standard for all times of year! 

Whatever the time of the year we need to dress for submersion, we need to dress so that if you fall in, you will still remain warm/not cold. 

During the warmer months of the year, you could wear as little as swimwear, with synthetic material shorts and t-shirts over the top and some sun protection. If you typically get cold, we may suggest you wear a thin wetsuit. 

During the colder months of the year, we would wear winter wet suits with extra layers and cagoules, or potentially thermals a dry suit. 

At present we don't have dry suits or wetsuits to hire out so please consider this when booking your session. 

Please bring a towel, a change of clothes and dry footwear, an extra jumper incase you need to warm up quick and some food and drink to replenish your energy levels.
