No, our paddling tour is suitable for beginners, with no previous experience necessary. ### What should I wear for the tour? We recommend dressing for the weather with layered, quick-drying sportswear. Avoid cotton clothing, particularly denim jeans, as they can become heavy and cold when wet. ### Is there parking near you? We are based on the towpath in West Molesey. It’s an easy place to walk and cycle to and we encourage all our customers to do that if possible – we have plenty of space for bike storage. If you are driving, the nearest free public parking is at Hurst Park. ### Is paddleboarding hard? An incredibly easy water sport to learn, SUP can be picked up quite quickly, with many becoming expert paddle boarders in no time at all. No matter your age or fitness level, paddleboarding is accessible to all. ### Which is easier paddleboarding or kayaking? That depends… Kayak paddling is often thought to be easier you’re sitting down! Most recreational kayaks are pretty stable and easy to paddle and you use a paddle with a blade at either end which means you’ll travel further, faster with the same amount of effort compared to paddling a board. Kayaking is great for longer distances due to added comfort. Having said that, paddleboarding is not hard! Most people are able to stand during their first lesson and start to understand the joys of stand-up paddling. It’s a relaxing way to spend time with family and friends and helps improve your fitness, both physically and mentally. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://dev.adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp-dev.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/jet-form-builder/2729f1c2eb62fb786edf1af844bce511/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-30-094707.png - **Gallery image count**: 13 ## 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.
