If you are driving, the nearest free public parking is at Hurst Park

There are many places you can paddle in London and on the River Thames including from our base in West Molesey near Hampton Court.
We have have our very own pontoon providing a safe place to start and end your paddling and a lovely stretch of the non-tidal River Thames to explore!
Further afield there are many inland waterways but always check to ensure access is allowed – a surprising amount of UK rivers still do not allow paddling.
This truly depends on the experience you are after.
There are various amazing places where beginners can get started and Surrey and London are home to some excellent spots, including around our base near Hampton Court.
Easy to get to, plenty of access points to get on the water, lovely sights and some welcoming cafes and pubs to relax in after your paddle!
For a more urban experience the popular central locations in Paddington, Little Venice and Hackney Wick also gain a lot of traction and attention.
If you’d like to experience paddling on the sea the UK has many stunning locations. Always check local conditions including tides and winds, and listen to the locals! – if its an offshore breeze then its best to stay on the beach!
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.
We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.

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!
