Paddle-tastic - Was given this as a gift - but would happily have paid for it. There were just 2 of us on a beautiful Monday morning and we were taken out by Alex who proved to be a great coach and good supporter. Scenery was beautiful and we also met a group of escaped terrapins. Would highly recommend this. My wife also did a bit of paddle-board yoga with Alex which she really enjoyed.

Incredible experience for our young people! - Spent this summer taking groups of Sea Cadets (aged 10-18) on the water with Wittering SUP. As well as learning to SUP, they've had a fantastic time and all want to come again! The instructors are very professional and are brilliant with our young people!

A beautiful morning on the river. - Myself and partner had a wonderful morning river safari with Alex. She gave us great instruction and advice on all things sup like boards, good routes to try and even tips for paddling with our daughter. She is so lovely and friendly and put us both completely at ease. The stretch of river we went on is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful, I can’t wait to go out again!

Brilliant way to learn SUP - Alex & James are fab! - We did the River Safari learning to SUP - and had a simply fabulous time. We learnt so much, really developed a confidence on the board through great teaching of the techniques, as well as lots of extra tips. It felt really safe, flexible to the needs of individuals, fun and challenging. Highly recommend this - and having the extra hour on the safari, meant we had time to consolidate our learning and see more of the amazing River Avon.

- I was bought this as a gift and turned up fully expecting to hate paddleboarding. Cold water, wobbly board, public humiliation… the usual. Instead, I had a great time in an absolutely stunning and peaceful location. Alex and James were so welcoming and patient, I’d (willingly) do it again. A dangerously enjoyable experience — I’ve even recommended it to friends.

Jo and Mick Paddle Boarding 🥰 - This was our third time, and once again, it was an amazing experience! Alex and James are incredibly positive and encouraging — they create such a supportive and uplifting atmosphere. Their knowledge is outstanding, and they have a real gift for teaching in a way that’s easy to understand and apply. We always leave feeling inspired and more confident. Highly recommend!

The Perfect Date Day - We had such an incredible experience and Alex was so welcoming, fun and knowledgable. We will definitely be coming back for some one-to-one and the SUP Yoga. It was the perfect date day in a beautiful setting and a real mixture of relaxation and mindfulness as well as adventure. Thank you so much.

A wonderful experience shared - We'd wanted to get started with Paddleboarding for ages so it was great to have a chance to try it out with qualified instructor Alex on the river Avon. The 2.5 hour introductory session was perfect to get educated on shore first, then board our boards for a lengthy paddle upstream. Alex is a fantastic teacher her expertise helping us to progress to feeling confident on the water. Alex also took some great photos we now have, to cherish that lovely Sunday morning along the river, taking in the glorious views and peaceful atmosphere. Thank you for providing this fantastic service.
