Sea kayaking - Arne nature reserve

What is this activity?

Our kayak tours are something special. Whether you do another active sport and just want time out to see Poole Harbour in a totally different way or want to get into your kayaking, this is a great way to try the sport out. If you're brave, bring a camera along to capture some memories from the day, but remember to keep it in a waterproof bag or risk the consequences. After all this is not a stay-dry sport!

We use a BCU qualified instructor as a guide and supply all the equipment needed, but if you have your own please bring it. Our 'sit on top' touring kayaks are so easy to use you need no experience, single or two seaters are available. We can also supply Stand up Paddleboards for use on the tours. All tours include regular breaks.
