Trial Sessions
You can try out kayaking with Martlet Kayak Club. Currently some coaches have volunteered to induct inexperienced paddlers in small groups. The membership form and trial fee can be handled online prior to the session via https://martletkayakclub.myclubhouse.co.uk.
Sessions are very dependent on weather and experience and are most definitely not ad hoc and coaches are under no obligation.
Trial sessions cost £15 for Adults and £7 for Juniors which is deducted from the full membership fee should you decide to join later. Fill out the Membership Form online.
Weather conditions determine what activity takes place and a session may be cancelled if necessary.
What to bring for a trial kayaking session
- Towel & change of clothes
- An old pair of trainers to wear on the beach and in the boat
- A wetsuit (only if you have one)
- Long sleeve tops made of polyester
