We’re a friendly recreational paddling club that caters for virtually all forms of canoeing and kayaking in and around the Ipswich area. Our members come mostly from the surrounding areas of Suffolk and Essex.

Our activities take place all year round and include evening sessions during the spring/summer, indoor pool sessions during the colder months, plus local and national paddling trips on flat water, white water, sea and surf. In addition to the paddling, we also have various social events throughout the year. Members can take part in training courses, specialised coaching sessions or just go for a sociable paddle.

We welcome newcomers to the sport and have qualified instructors who can provide coaching to paddlers of all ages and ability levels. Have a look around our website to find out more.
