Exeter Canal Kayak Hire

The Historic Exeter canal is a nice and easy location that is perfect for all paddlers including families and novices. With lots of great wildlife to be seen along the Exe Salt Marshes and two great pubs offering tasty food and thirst-quenching drinks, there is something for everyone. Please remember to paddle (and drink) responsibly.

The first stop, The Double Locks pub, is just 45 minutes away. Our most popular trip, as you can have a drink and paddle back within 2 hours. If you are feeling up for a longer outing, take advantage of our Day Saver rate and head down to The Turf Hotel.

Exeter Kayak Hire

Choose from our 1 or 2 person sit-on-top kayaks. Great for beginners, using a double-ended paddle is easy to get to grips with and will keep you going in a straight line. All of our kayaks feature comfortable backrests and generous storage areas, perfect for longer trips.

Canoe Hire Exeter

The traditional “Canadian” style open canoe is the classic canal cruiser. With enough space for 2 Adults and a Child (over 8) everyone gets a single-ended paddle to get you moving. The Canoe requires a bit more coordination than a kayak, so teamwork is key! You are rewarded with a drier ride, being a bit further away from the water.

Paddleboard Hire

Stand-up Paddleboards (SUP’s) keep growing in popularity! We have a fleet of premium Red Paddle Co Inflatable paddleboards to hire in a range of sizes to suit all paddlers. No experience needed, come and give it a go! A great way to see if you want to invest in the sport, or just have a bit of fun on (and in?) the water!

Our Facilities

  • Top quality UK made kayaks.
  • Changing rooms & toilet.
  • Secure storage for a rucksack or handbag.
  • Buoyancy aids, paddles & water resistant tub included in price.
