What Can I Expect

Peaceful paddle boarding in South Wales! Head to the Brecon Beacons in Powys for idyllic paddle sport lessons from qualified instructors who'll only be too pleased to show you this fast-growing sport.

The thing about paddle boarding (or stand up paddle boarding as it is also called) is that it is flexible and accessible. That's what makes it so attractive as a water sport. The best way to get into paddle boarding is on an introductory course, like this one in South Wales.

During your three-hour experience on the edge of this Welsh national park, you'll be given a welcome and safety briefing, get kitted out with gear to suit you (different length boards and paddles are available) and have a little on-shore try out too. Your instructors will show you how you actually get on (and off) the boards, which can be a bit tricky to begin with, until you know the technique.

After that, you'll head out to sheltered waters on either the river or the canal. This is where you'll practice mounts and dismounts and learn the correct ways to paddle. And we have to say, once you've ‘got it', paddling is an effortless joy.

There's also a lot of fun to be had on a paddle board and this South Wales team loves to round off beginner paddle boarding sessions with some waterborne games. They're good fun and great for building confidence out on the board.

Whether you're thinking about starting a new hobby, or simply just fancy giving this paddle sport a go, these three-hour introductory paddle boarding experiences in South Wales are a great option. They're suitable from the age of 12 years too, so why not make it a family outing? Vouchers are available from us in just a few clicks!
