Key Details Duration : 2 hours Location : Loch Brora Ages : 6+ Equipment Provided : Paddleboard and buoyancy aid What to Expect After meeting at Loch Brora, you'll be handed your paddleboard and given a quick but thorough briefing on the equipment, weather, and local conditions. This ensures you feel confident before heading out onto the water. If you're new to paddleboarding, we recommend a lesson first, but the hire option is great for those comfortable giving it a go on their own. Loch Brora provides a peaceful setting with calm waters, making it an ideal spot to explore at your own pace. You can paddle along the shoreline, enjoy the views, or simply relax on the water. As there are no changing facilities or toilets at the loch, it's best to come prepared. Suitable footwear, such as trainers or sliders, is advised for getting in and out of the water comfortably. Wetsuits are available for hire separately, with sizes ranging from kids aged 6 to men's XXXL and women's size 26. If you'd like to add a wetsuit or extra buoyancy aids to your booking, simply do so through our 'Equipment Hire' section when reserving your board. Location Loch Brora is a quiet and scenic spot, offering a fantastic setting for paddleboarding. Nestled in the Highlands, it's surrounded by beautiful landscapes and provides a peaceful escape on the water. The loch’s calm conditions make it suitable for all experience levels, whether you're exploring on your own or paddling with friends and family. Prerequisites Participants should be comfortable in the water and able to manage their own paddleboard.

You'll receive a full safety briefing and an introduction to the equipment. However, this is not a lesson, so if you’re a complete beginner, we recommend booking a session with an instructor before hiring. These lessons can be found at the bottom of this page. ### Do I need to wear a wetsuit while paddleboarding? A wetsuit is recommended. You are in the north of Scotland, the water is cold! You are welcome to wear your own, or you can hire one from us in a range of sizes. ### What should I bring with me? A towel, and footwear like trainers or sliders for getting in and out of the water. Comfortable, warm clothes to change into after are always a good idea. Sun cream, a bottle of water, and a dry bag for personal belongings are also useful. ### Are there any age restrictions for hiring a paddleboard? Paddleboards must be hired by an adult aged 16+. The lead hirer is responsible for who will use the board. Children must be supervised by an adult at all times, and we recommend that younger paddlers share a board with an adult if they are new to the activity. ### What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my booking? Safety is our priority, so if conditions are unsuitable due to high winds or storms, we may need to reschedule your hire session. We will contact you as soon as possible if changes need to be made. If rescheduling is not possible, we will offer a credit or refund. ### Can I take my phone or other valuables on the paddleboard? Yes, but we strongly advise using a waterproof pouch or dry bag to protect your phone, keys, and other valuables. We have a limited number of these available. Loch Brora is deep in some areas and the water is dark. Anything dropped in the water will be unlikely to be retrieved. ### Are there changing rooms or toilet facilities at Loch Brora? No, there are no facilities at Loch Brora. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Screenshot-2025-03-20-102207.png - **Gallery image count**: 8 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
