Activity: Canoeing
Anglesey I Tattenhall
Canoeing is a fantastic opportunity to explore and journey on the water, building water confidence in a relaxed and social environment. Originating from North America, canoes are large open craft which can seat one, two or three people and are manoeuvred by participants using a single bladed paddle. If required, canoes can be rafted up to create a very stable learning platform.
