Hi, Our minimum age for SUP is 8 years old as long as they are confident and have been on the water before otherwsie we would recommend 10 as they would be on there own board and need to control it independently. For under 8's we recommend a kayak taster where they can sit in the front of a double kayak with a parent behind them. For all under 18's we require a parent to be taking part on the session with them as we are not AALS registered. At the moment due to the covdi19 restricitons we dont offer wetsuit hire so we recommend lightweight clothing and footwear you dont mind getting wet with a change of clothes for afterwards. Thank you

Hi Sarah, It is doable but takes a bit of planning with tide times and weather. Recently we have has strong winds which make the sea very choppy and this would be a hard paddle. Ideally you are looking for a morning paddle with the tide going out which would help you to Barton and then coming back on the incoming tide. We only recommend paddling on the sea to competent paddlers who are happy rescuing each other if they capsize. The other option would be to book us for a couple of hours to go out with an instrcutor Sean
