Summer Sigh - North Devon & Exmoor Sea Kayak Get Together

As summer draws to a close, sea kayakers from across the region are gearing up for an unforgettable weekend of exploration along North Devon’s and Exmoor’s breathtaking coastline. This gathering promises not just adventure on the water but also camaraderie among like-minded individuals who share a passion for paddling.
The event takes place in one of Britain's most stunning coastal areas, where golden sandy beaches stretch as far as the eye can see, framed by England’s highest sea cliffs and dramatic tidal ranges. Participants will have access to miles of pristine waters, offering an incredible backdrop for both seasoned kayakers and beginners alike.
Rather than a traditional guided tour, this weekend is designed around small groups led by highly experienced local guides who are passionate about sharing their knowledge with others in a supportive environment. The focus isn’t on pushing individuals out of their comfort zones but rather fostering teamwork and decision-making based on each participant’s abilities.
Each day will be filled with paddling sessions that showcase the best spots along this scenic coastline, followed by evenings around the campfire where stories are shared and insights from guest speakers inspire new adventures. The camaraderie continues over local cider as plans for the next day's activities take shape in a relaxed atmosphere.
The event includes camping at Watermouth Valley Campsite, complete with pitches suitable for tents, caravans, motorhomes, and campervans. A hearty BBQ on Saturday night ensures everyone is fueled up for another day of exploration, while dietary requirements are accommodated to ensure no one misses out on the fun.
For those who want to bring along a non-paddling friend or partner, there’s plenty to enjoy on land too. The nearby Exmoor National Park offers stunning landscapes and activities that cater to all interests, ensuring everyone feels welcome and engaged throughout the weekend.
With ticket prices reflecting recent increases in operational costs but still offering excellent value for an immersive experience, this event promises a memorable escape into nature and community spirit along North Devon’s enchanting coast. Don’t miss out on what is sure to be one of the highlights of the autumn paddling calendar.
Join us for an adventure that combines breathtaking scenery with warm hospitality and endless opportunities for growth and connection among fellow sea kayakers.
