Activities

The Club aims to arrange at least two official club paddles per month. In addition to this, club members get together to arrange ad hoc paddles on an unofficial basis using the Events (Facebook) page to communicate their plans.

During British Summer time we meet on Thursday evenings at 6:00 pm (on the water) at various location in around Weymouth Bay and Portland Harbour Please contact us by our FaceBook page if you would like join us and have not paddled with us before.

The following activities are planned (but not promissed). Details of each activity, including start times and locations, can be found on the Events (Facebook) page.
