Established in 2009, Paddle Orkney is a biennial symposium based on Mainland Orkney. It is organised by Kirkwall Kayak Club members who have a passion for sea kayaking and helping promote the islands and what we have to offer.
The North Isles are a fantastic archipelago and our aim is to create an experience that provides top class coaching in some fantastic and variable waters around our coastline. As well as workshops such as Greenland rolling, tidal skills, rock hopping and rescues there will be the opportunity for trips round and about the island(s), both at the event itself and either side as paddlers hang around to take in the islands coastlines.
There is the option to take part in informal dinners on both the Saturday and Sunday evenings, with live music providing evening entertainment .
Keep an eye open for more information coming soon. Bookings will go live later in 2024, date TBC.
