BATH HEN PARTY STAND UP PADDLE BOARD ADVENTURE

SUP ADVENTURE from £39 per person - 2.5-3 Hours - Up to 24 People Based at our private launch site in Batheaston; our Hen Party paddle boarding sessions are perfect for groups looking to have a fun session whilst celebrating a special occasion with some luxury extras. From learning to SUP to more advanced skills based sessions we can design the experience around the requirement of your group. You'll be paddling along a beautiful stretch of the River Avon above Bathampton Weir ensuring that sessions are free of boat traffic and bursting with wildlife including Kingfishers, Beaver, Dippers, Emperor Dragonflies & a host of other wildlife dependent on the time of year. This is a stunning section of the river providing one of the best watersports experiences in the area which will also provide the opportunity for some wild swimming.

Celebrating something special?  Want to add some 'luxury' to your experience? At our private launch site we can provide a range of different additional treats to your adventure with us:

• Prosecco Paddle - You can book a glass of prosecco to enjoy during or after your paddle.
• Coffee & Cake - After your SUP you can sit down and relax with a delicious cup of freshly brewed Colonna coffee and a yummy brownie.
• Fire-pit - Sit around the fire-pit enjoying your bubbles or coffee in the glowing warmth of a fire-pit.
• The SUP Works - Enjoy a glass of prosecco during your SUP adventure, followed by a post adventure picnic by the fire-pit with lots of treats from our local suppliers.

What to expect? On arrival you will be provided with a safety brief before introducing to your Stand Up Paddle (SUP) Boarding equipment. The fun begins here as we show you how to get on your board and progress from a kneeling to stand up position. Once you are happy in a kneeling or standing position we will start the adventure along the water. Our sessions are all about fun and relaxing; we can cruise, race, swim or form a SUP raft and float down river with a glass of bubbles if you would like!
