Whoosh Explore

We had a great time kayaking with Whoosh. The river is so peaceful and beautiful and yet just a half hour train ride form Tottenham Hale in north London. We got off the train at Harlow Mill and walked along lovely river path first. Really recommend!

A perfect, relaxing afternoon on the River Stort with my adult daughter! Big thanks to Peter at Whoosh Canoe Club for being so friendly and patient with me as a beginner. The pace was lovely, and we thoroughly enjoyed stopping for coffee and chatting with the locals. Peter also shared some fantastic insights into the river's biodiversity and their conservation work. We had a brilliant time and will definitely return again!

A great club for learning how to paddle a canoe, kayak or SUP.
From weekly basic taister sessions through to longer club trips on the River Stort and other local rivers.
The club also provides organised paddling sessions for Scouts, Guides, Schools and other youth groups in the warmer months.
There are regular club trips to add interest throughout the year, with trips on white water and other interesting waterways.
The popular monthly "Full moon" evening paddles to the Three Horseshoes are an atmospheric alternative to normal daytime paddling.
