Paddle Cymru, Inspiring People to Paddle!

From first-time paddlers finding their confidence to experienced athletes chasing new challenges, Paddle Cymru supports people at every stage of their paddling journey.


As the national governing body for paddlesport in Wales, we champion safe, inclusive and responsible paddling, nurture skills and communities, and protect the rivers, lakes and coastlines that make our sport possible.


We believe paddling is more than an activity, it’s a way to connect with nature, build confidence, strengthen communities and create lifelong relationships with the water.
