Paddle boarding along the Jurassic coast

Orcombe point to Sandy Bay and back

Orcombe point is the UNESCO starting point for the Jurassic coast line. Exmouth is the Triassic section, 250,000 million year old Red Rocks lead to the Jurassic Dorset coast turning Cretaceous by Swanage. Our paddle adventure from Orcombe to Sandy Bay is lovely, the tall cliffs and sandy beaches make an amazing backdrop.
It's a brilliant tour and it is designed for any standard of paddler. Complete beginners can have their lesson first and then, conditions permitting, have an adventure down to Sandy bay. The more experienced paddlers may be rewarded with a wave just past Rodney bay. We also teach at the estuary where there are some enjoyable paddles to Lympstone, Topsham, Starcross and the famous Turf Locks. These paddles are flat water and perfect for improving skills and having a good work out. Dave and I often catch up while having a paddle to Lympstone and back.
Wether you are a group of friends, corporate, hens or stags, these water adventures are a perfect way to enjoy the great outdoors, learning new skills and enjoying some great exercise.

After a chilly start to spring 2023, the sun has finally arrived, and we intend to make the most of it. Look out for our hire banks, down at our estuary centre as always, but during half term and summer holiday, if the sun is shining we will be at Orcombe Point. Come along and hire sups or kayaks, or chat with the staff and get yourselves booked in for a lesson or family session and have some fun.
