        Favourite paddles


We have many paddles which are favourites with club members from a gentle paddle down a lake to running rapids.
Several times a year we paddle in the Lake District, and hold a camp there annually. We always take the good weather with us as you can see.

We are often to be found on various sections of the River Wansbeck as there are conditions to suit the novice and the more experienced paddler.

We also travel further north to hold an annual camp at North Berwick for experienced paddlers when a great deal of sea paddling is undertaken.

The River Till in north Northumberland is a frequent destination as is the River Tweed and sections of the North and South Tyne.

Being based on the coast, sea kayaking is one of our regular activities, and we have a strong contingent of surf kayakers.

                        

You can also find some our members at Teeside White Water coarse
