Discover paddleboarding with a fun and relaxed introduction designed to get you confident on the water.
Starting at our riverside activity hub, we’ll get you fully kitted out before guiding you through the essentials—how to use the equipment safely, how to launch and move around on the board, and the basic paddling strokes you’ll need. And if you’re feeling brave (and don’t mind the chance of a splash), we’ll help you take your first steps toward standing up.
After an on-water skills practice, we will go on a short journey, and play a few light‑hearted games or challenges.
Once you’re back on dry land, you can warm up using our hot showers and even treat yourself to a tea or hot chocolate before you head off.

Clothing: Please wear suitable lightweight and warm clothing that you do not mind getting wet, it is quite likely you will fall in at some point! We will not be travelling to far so for those that do get cold easily it is not far back to the shore to get warm again. If you do have your own wetsuit or waterwear, please feel free to bring it!
Footwear: Securely attached and close toed footwear is required to, so unfortunately no crocs, flip flops or sandals! We can not see what is on the bottom of the lochs and rivers, and we do not recommend using bare feet to find out.
Weather: Our sessions will go ahead in all but the most inclement weather, so make sure you bring your waterproofs, a sun hat, and plenty of water to stay hydrated, this way you will be prepared for whatever weather Scotland throws our way.
