Discover the scenic canals of London with your SUP skills from the heart of the city - Ladbroke Grove. Our paddleboarding hire is set up for those with prior paddleboarding experience, or those who have confidently completed a session with us and are eager to explore the waterways independently.
Embarking on a SUP Rental allows you to unveil the beauty of Paddington Basin, Regents Canal and the Grand Union Canal at a pace that suits you. While our team will equip you with all the necessary gear, the rest of the adventure is yours.
Ladbroke Grove , located in central London, offers a unique and scenic route for paddleboarding along the Grand Union Canal. Despite being in the city center, you can encounter various wildlife species, contributing to a peaceful and serene environment. Post-paddleboarding, the area invites you to explore an array of cafes, shops, and restaurants. With its easy access near Paddington Station, it makes for a convenient spot for an urban paddleboarding adventure.
With our roots dating back to 2011, we have pioneered introducing urban SUP experiences on the River Thames and London's canals. Our diverse team of seasoned coaches is dedicated to crafting unforgettable experiences for paddlers from all backgrounds.
At our core, we're dedicated to spreading awareness about the marine environment and its prevailing threats, notably plastic pollution. We passionately urge all paddlers to partake in safeguarding our precious waterways.
Please Note: SUP rental requires prior SUP experience. Safety is paramount, and we expect you to paddle independently and navigate safely amongst canal traffic. If you doubt your skill level, we recommend considering one of our coach-led trips which you can find at the bottom of this page.
Important: Please be aware that the Maida Hill tunnel on the Regent's Canal is strictly regulated and not accessible for independent paddling.
Sorry, no. SUP rental is only for those with SUP experience. For safety, you need to be confident to paddle independently and manoeuvre safely around canal traffic. If you’re unsure of your ability, consider joining one of our coach-led trips which you can find at the bottom of this page. You can hire our kayaks or canoes without any experience – you can also find them at the bottom of this page!
You will receive a booking confirmation and be able to speak to the centre via the online chat.
Before heading out for your SUP session, we recommend you check the weather forecast and dress accordingly, keeping potential wind and rain factors in mind.
Pack These Essentials:
What to Wear:
We do not have lockers on site but personal belongings in a bag/rucksack can be left in the equipment cages on site. Make sure you do not leave loose items – it’s best to put them in one or two bags. Shoes can be left on site too. We have never had anything go missing, but please avoid bringing valuables (or take them in a drybag) as the cages are shared by staff and all customers.
We highly recommend cycling to the site. There are cycle stands nearby. Bring a lock with you. Folded Brompton bikes can be left in the equipment cages.
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.
