Seasonal Hours Update:

As the holiday season approaches, we’d like to keep you informed of our opening hours leading up to Christmas and in the New Year. Here’s what you need to know:

Until 22nd December:

  • We are open as usual! Come visit us for all your whitewater kayaking gear and expert advice.

From 23rd December to Early January:

  • Our shop will be closed for the holiday period, giving our team a well-deserved break to recharge for the year ahead.

In January (until 23rd):

  • We will be open with reduced hours. While the Lee Valley Olympic Whitewater Centre will be open to the public, please note that there won’t be any kayaking sessions available until the 23rd.
  • Our shop will remain open for you to pick up anything you need.

Normal Hours Resume:

  • Regular business hours will resume from 23rd January, with all usual services back in full swing.

During our period of closure:

  • We will be available via email or text/WhatsApp.
  • Mail orders placed after Sunday 22nd December will be shipped from Wednesday 8th January. 
  • For Click&Collect orders placed after Sunday 22nd December, we will be in touch after 8th Jan to arrange an appropriate collection time. 

Thank you for your continued support. We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We look forward to seeing you again in 2025!
