Our Discover Paddleboarding Day is an all-encompassing introduction aimed at those new to the sport or looking to solidify their basic skills. Over the course of the day, you'll not only learn the core aspects of paddleboarding but also have the chance to experiment with different boards and equipment, understanding their nuances and how they affect your experience on the water.
The course takes place on the tranquil River Leam, starting from our centre at Mill Gardens, a setting known for its natural beauty and wildlife. This calm stretch of river is ideal for beginners.
This course is perfect for complete beginners or those with minimal experience in paddleboarding who wish to enhance their skills in a supportive and comprehensive environment.
At our centre, we're passionate about introducing newcomers to the joys of paddleboarding. Our experienced instructors are not only experts in the sport but also enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge and love for paddleboarding. By choosing our Discover Paddleboarding Day, you'll benefit from a friendly, informative, and hands-on approach to learning, set against the stunning backdrop of the River Leam.
