CAN YOU KAYAK IN LONDON? THE BEST PLACES

Surprisingly, there is a lot of choice for canoeing and kayaking in London, with most destinations offering lovely scenery and lots of nature.

However, London offers a more urban range of paddling experiences, where you can tour the city from a different perspective.

The classical London kayaking experience is usually completed from Greenwich to Battersea, boasting sites covering Greenwich Park, Canary Wharf, Tower Bridge, London Bridge, Westminster, Big Ben, and more.

With all that being said, if you are looking for something quieter, personal, and less busy, try the local Surrey waterways to experience a more relaxed day on the water.
