Service Description

Have a great big watersports birthday party on the River Dee in Chester. We'll head out onto the water and run a big session of fun and games on the River Dee. The whole session will take place in view of Sandy Lane Park, where there is also a play area and public toilet facilities. Groups can expect to go home tired and exhilarated from kayak races, balance games, jumping in and more! What to bring: If cool weather is expected, please bring a set of warm clothes suitable for watersports activity (Think winter gym kit: no jeans, no cotton T-Shirts), and waterproofs to go over the top. If very warm weather is expected then swim shorts and a T-shirt is usually fine! Because of the stability of our kayaks, participants will not fall in by accident, but they'll have ample chances to get wet if they're keen to. Water dripping from the paddle will cause all to have a wet bum at the least! Be sure to bring a change of clothes and a towel or changing robe for afterward! All of our activities require participants to wear closed-toe footwear throughout. It is essential that you bring a spare pair of shoes so that you can wear one on the river and the other on the way home. All Chester based trips depart from Sandy Lane riverside car park. Look for the bright blue boats! Sandy Ln, Chester CH3 5UL
