at Kew Bridge
The original home of SUP in London
Situated under the arches of a historic bridge (built 1903), this base is our environmental hub located conveniently on the water’s edge and offering unique views of London. You can learn paddleboarding skills and how to use the Thames Tideway safely. We run a comprehensive programme at this base throughout the year. There are changing facilities and showers available.
If you are planning to become a regular user of the Thames, we offer Thames Skills and Knowledge courses to bring your skills and knowledge up to a competent level.
We also offer opportunities to learn more about the river environment on SUP Natural History Tours.
