Whether you are a seasoned paddleboarder or a complete beginner, all students are welcome. Merijn and a team of instructors will be on hand to explain the basics and guide you through the canals.

What to bring: comfortable clothes you can move freely in and that you don’t mind getting wet. A towel or dry clothes might come in handy too.

Back at the Old Observatory, we’ll enjoy a tasty lunch and reflect with Merijn Tinga on the day and what we’ve fished out of the water.
