Explore the beautiful Sussex countryside by water, taking in the scenic views and spotting some awesome wildlife along the way, is there a better way to spend your time?
Starting at the scenic and calm waters of Barcombe Mills, our expert instructors will spend some time at the start helping you to get used to manoeuvring your paddleboard and stand up. These skills will come in handy when we meet a few obstacles on our adventure, no spoilers, but how are your limbo skills?
There's lots of wildlife, such as herons, swans, Canadian geese, dragonflies, damselflies and, if you’re lucky, a trout heading upstream to it’s spawning grounds. Then continue on the loop back through narrow waterways and paddling over remnants of the old mill.
This trip is suitable for all levels of paddleboards, however some experience is advised.
