Explorer Kayak Session - 16 paddlers
We hope the leaders are ready to be pushed in!
Especially with 16 explorers out on the water.
Our Explorer sessions are a great opportunity for your young people to socialise whilst learning a new skill.
During the session, your young people will paddle the waterways on our kayaks completing some challenges, learning watersafety and having some fun.
Once they have been kayaking, we will jump aboard our super XL paddle boards for some team challenges and activities to get everyone used to the water.
A fantastic opportunity for participating leaders to dunk their favourite explorers.
