For established clubs & paddling groups
Sea kayak club weekends & group journeys
Bring your group to Pembrokeshire for one day, a weekend or a longer visit—without carrying the full burden of organising venues, tides, coaching and coastal logistics.
You bring the group
We shape the paddling around you
Club weekends are for established groups who want high-quality coastal days with experienced local coaching, practical facilities and enough flexibility for the social side of club paddling.
Condition-led venues
Routes and locations are selected day by day around the forecast, sea state, group and useful alternatives.
Coaching that fits
The balance can lean towards journeys, technical development or group confidence according to your aims.
Time together
Use the Academy base, camping and shared facilities to keep the group together beyond the paddling day.
A good fit for…
Groups that already paddle together
- Kayak clubs and established paddling groups
- Friends with a shared sea-kayaking background
- Groups wanting to explore Pembrokeshire with local support
- Mixed-experience groups whose differences are explained in advance
- Returning clubs that value a regular weekend together
Group structure matters
Tell us the real experience range
Good planning depends on knowing who is coming—not only the strongest paddlers. Please describe confidence, recent experience and any meaningful differences within the group.
Coach numbers, group structure and objectives are matched to that information and confirmed in your quote.
How the weekend works
Flexible days with a clear purpose
Agree the format
Confirm dates, numbers, experience, aims, coach structure, accommodation and the whole-group price.
Meet at the Academy
Check equipment, discuss conditions and choose the best available coast for the group.
Adapt each day
Adjust route, pace, challenges and coaching emphasis as the conditions and group provide new information.
Stay together on site
Camping & Academy facilities
- On-site camping included with club weekends
- Toilets, hot showers and washing-up facilities
- The Chart Room classroom and Wheelhouse shared indoor space
- Kit-washing and drying facilities
- Guest Wi-Fi
Holmus Cottage may be available separately, and group members are welcome to arrange accommodation elsewhere.
Returning clubs
Keep a weekend that works
Many clubs return year after year. Where possible, returning groups are given priority on dates they have previously used before those weekends are offered elsewhere.
Dates remain limited because we match each booking with suitable coach availability and protect the quality of the paddling experience.
Arrange your visit
Email Ant for dates and a whole-group quote
Club weekends are deliberately arranged by email rather than shown in the public calendar. This lets us match dates, coaches, group structure and format properly.
