Overview

The River Dart is a special place. Stunningly beautiful scenery, never busy, and always something to discover. You might even spot a seal! Our guides will look after you and make sure that you are safe as well as show you the prettiest corners of the Dart estuary. Small group sizes and experienced guides will help you relax and connect with nature.

Itinerary

For our half-day canoe trip please check in with your guide at the starting location in Totnes. We will hand out buoyancy aids and dry bags for your belongings to take on the river, followed by a 15 mins safety briefing and how-to paddle instructions. We will then get on the water and paddle for around 1.5 hrs with the tidal flow which helps us along gliding through the stunning landscape. We will start in Totnes and paddle either upriver towards Dartington or downriver past Sharpham estate and towards Stoke Gabriel. There is no rush and well will make sure that the paddle speed suits all of the group members. After 1.5hrs we will have our halfway break for about 30 mins by the side of the river with tea or coffee / hot chocolate provided. After the break, we will paddle back to the start which will take up to 1.5 hours. Our friendly guides will be with you the whole time happy to help and share some knowledge about the river.

Great day out

Published on Jul, 2024

Really friendly and accessible- a great day out. The river is easy to navigate and is beautiful Take some water and snacks and sea-shoes are a good idea

Unexpected bonus seals.

Published on Jul, 2024

Had a wonderful trip from Steamer Quay upstream to the north of Dartington with Phil from Paddle Devon. Did not expect to see seals and a steam train! Beautiful, clear water, flat as a millpond. Pace was nice and moderate so we could take in the scenery and wildlife, without feeling pressured (we are in our 60s). Highly recommended.

Kayak trip

Published on Oct, 2023

Wonderful half day trip down the river, made even more special because we managed to spot 5 Seals! Highly recommend booking a trip with Paddle Devon.

Peaceful paddling

Published on Oct, 2023

Really lovely experience paddling on the river with our guide Kerry. She explained everything clearly and made us feel confident, and she was great company. Definitely recommend this experience and we can’t wait to go again!

White water trip. Book it, you will love it!!

Published on Oct, 2023

Have done many trips with Paddle Devon and Nils. The trips are always professionally run and always great fun. I started white water Kayaking with Nils 2 years ago and was pretty apprehensive. Nils soon showed me the ropes and now we paddle bigger and bigger rivers. Love it!!!
