Frequently asked questions
Planning Your Outing
What should I bring?
Appropriate clothing for the time of year (jogging trousers and a sweatshirt), a spare change of clothes, old trainers or wetsuit boots, waterproofs or your own wetsuit, a warm or sun hat, suncream and a towel.
Can I hire a wetsuit?
Yes — wetsuits can be hired on site for £5 per person.
Can I take a camera on the kayak?
Waterproof cameras are permitted but must be secured by a chest harness; the operator cannot accept responsibility for lost devices and the water can be in excess of 3 metres deep.
What wildlife might I see?
There are ducks and geese around the lakes and fish of various sizes; the operator notes local waterfowl and fish as part of site conditions.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain is normally allowed and sessions continue; if there is lightning in the area sessions will pause and resume once the storm has passed, with lost time made up where possible.
