A learn to paddle board session with an extended trip to the basin, to enjoy a visit to the Canal Cafe or Richmond Public House for refreshments.

This is a perfect option for groups/ birthdays/corporate / team building / stag and hen parties.

On the return journey we can tailor the session to your groups needs with some fun games, or just allowing everyone to enjoy a relaxed paddle.

Please note that we require at least 6 booking together to run these sessions.

Minimum age of 16.

Ability to swim 10M.

We provide everything that you will need for your session. We have a full range of summer, winter, full and shorty wetsuits to suit all ages and sizes, from age 6 to adult XXL, as well as a huge range of wetsuit shoes, rash vests and buoyancy aids.

All equipment and tuition are included in our lessons, so all you need to bring is yourself, swimwear for under a wetsuit, a towel. If the weather is too warm for wetsuits, we would suggest that you wear swim shorts and one of our rash vests on your top half. 

Please do not bring any valuable items.

Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your booked session time as this will allow you to, sign in, get changed.

Your Instructor will meet you and the rest of the group at the pontoon in Hunston, once everyone is kitted up the Instructor will deliver a safety briefing and a dryland demonstration to familiarise you with the equipment and the environment.

The Instructor will then demonstrate techniques for entering the water and the rest of the session will be on the water, developing paddle skills and enjoying the beautiful surroundings of Chichester Canal.

We tailor all of our sessions to the individual needs of our customers. We can offer technical sessions for those who want to focus on their technique and progressing their stroke, turns and speed. However, we also recognise that some families and groups prefer to have a more fun session whilst learning the basics of SUP and are able to incorporate some fun and games into the sessions to ensure that all ages are engaged in the activity.
