About this
A group paddle on the Langebaan lagoon, free to join, on whatever you have: surfskis, kayaks, sit-on-tops. The lagoon is the reason this works — protected, flat and shallow for a long way out, which makes it one of the kinder places in the country to learn to paddle and a pleasure once you can.
Mornings are the time to be out, before the southeaster gets going. The group is arranged by WhatsApp rather than to a fixed timetable, so message Angus and he will tell you when the next one is going and where to put in. He runs the Saturday mountain bike rides too.
Bring your own boat and a leash, and a bright top so the boats can see you. It is open water, however flat it looks.
Times shift with the seasons and the wind. Always double-check directly before heading out, and know your own limits — especially in open water.
