Join us on the lochs, lakes, coasts and rivers of the United Kingdom for an unforgettable kayaking experience with Gateway Outdoors Kayaking.

First you need to choose where in the United Kingdom you would like to take your kayaking, if you are a novice or are wanting to improve your skills, or you are looking for something a little more challenging. Then we will use our experience on the waterways of the British Isles to help you select the perfect location for you and your group.

You can take kayaking on fast moving white water rivers for a multiday expedition or something a little less grueling for those without the confidence to tackle high grade rivers. And our instructors will be there on every step of the way guiding you, teaching you vital techniques and safety skills while keeping you safe and enjoying the time of your life!
