About Where to Paddle

Where to Paddle is a website that allows you to find places to paddle in the UK. It's designed to allow you to find new places to paddle, and to share your favourite places with others.

It's a community driven website, so if you have a favourite place to paddle, please add it to the site.

This site is hoping to be useful to all types of paddlers, from kayakers to paddleboarders, or even canoeists, and from beginners to experts. However we ask that any locations added are predominantly flat water

Where possible, we include water level information from close by measuring stations, so you can check if the water levels are suitable for your trip. We also provide links to check the weather at the locations

This project was created for a bit of fun, let us know if you have any suggestions

The hosting for this project is provided by Uptime Allies. If you need broadband & phones for your company, check them out (or if you just want really good home broadband).
