Our kayaking events in Manchester are back! Cool off on the water in the heart of the city's striking Salford Quays at the rebranded Helly Hansen Watersports Centre.
This FULL WEEKEND event is ideal for Lads wanting to refresh their kayaking skills. You'll have four three-hour sessions on the water with lunch in between and by the end of the weekend you'll be assessed for the British Canoeing 2 star award*.
If you don't have a whole weekend free then have a look at our shorter sessions running throughout the spring and summer.

What to bring
All equipment will be provided including wetsuits, bouyancy aids and helmets.
Footwear is essential so either bring an old pair of trainers that you don't mind getting wet or wetsuit boots if you have them.
Hot showers are available (and recommended if you've been in the water!) so bring a towel and shower gel/shampoo, etc. You'll also need a 20p piece for the lockers which is not returned.
Food & drink
You'll need a packed lunch for each day. After we've dried off, we'll be heading next door to the Quay House Beefeater pub for food and a pint for those that need some refreshments!
