Enjoy a day on the calm waters of the non-tidal River Thames in Surrey with our double sit-on-top kayak hire. Perfect for friends, families, or paddling with a small child in the middle, these kayaks provide a stable and versatile way to spend time on the river. Flexible hire options allow you to paddle for anything from one hour up to a full day.
These double sit-on-top kayaks can be paddled solo, tandem, or with a small child in the middle, making them ideal for family trips or days out with a friend. The stable hull provides confidence on the water, while adjustable seating ensures comfort for longer sessions. Buoyancy aids are provided for all paddlers, including options for children and small dogs, so everyone can join in safely.
While paddling, you can explore quiet stretches of the river, islands, and riverside parks. There are opportunities to stop for picnics, admire local wildlife, or even enjoy a swim from one of the rope swings along the route. This kayak is particularly popular for parent-and-child outings, offering a fun and relaxed way to enjoy the Thames together.
Launch from our private pontoon on the non-tidal River Thames in West Molesey, Surrey, giving you direct access to calm, scenic waters. The surrounding area features islands, riverside paths, and small beaches, providing plenty of variety for a full-day adventure or a short afternoon paddle.
The river is shared with other paddlers and small craft, so awareness and courtesy are important. Take care near locks and weirs, and always keep to the right-hand side of the river. Respect for other river users and riverside property helps maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone.
Bookings must be made by an adult aged 18 or over, and at least one adult must accompany any junior paddlers on the water. All participants are required to wear the provided buoyancy aids, and a brief safety briefing is given before launch to ensure a smooth experience.
Equipment must be returned by the end of your hire period and removed from the water by dusk. Paddlers should dress appropriately for the weather, with waterproof layers recommended if rain or wind is expected. Small dry bags are suggested for valuables, and canoes are suitable for small dogs if required.

Kayaks are mostly considered safe to use and are not easy to tip over. The recreational and touring kayaks we use here are extremely stable.
However, that does not mean that they can’t capsize! But it will really depend on the type of boat, the conditions, your experience and the type of water you are planning on paddling in.
Wonderful service, great place and really friendly! Thoroughly recommend!
We had a fantastic morning on the river, the sun was shining and Andy was very helpful in his advice of where we could get to in the time we’d booked. All equipment and facilities great too, very handy to have lockers to leave some bags behind. Would definitely recommend!
Had a great Kayak session with Andy. A knowledgable, friendly and interesting guy and gave me the confidence I needed to start going out on my own kayak reguarly.
