This new, thoroughly updated second edition of Bradt's Paddling Britain remains the definitive guide to stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking and canoeing increasingly popular waterborne activities that explore British coastlines and inland waterways. Written by Lizzie Carr (aka Lizzie Outside, Britain's best known paddleboarder), it showcases Britain's 50 best places to enjoy recreational paddling from Cornwall to Norfolk, Cumbria and the Cairngorms.
Stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), in particular, is sweeping across Britain, giving people the opportunity to explore waterways ranging from city rivers to remote and untouched areas that would otherwise be left inaccessible. Whether you're looking for a nice day out, a weekend adventure or a more daring paddleboarding challenge, Bradt's Paddling Britain will inspire and inform.
The waters of England, Wales and Scotland are all featured, from rivers and canals to coastal strips and island circuits. Described in loving detail and with gentle humour, each location contains practical information about how to find these distinctive spots and what to expect on your journey.
With Bradt's Paddling Britain, you can paddle between two of the Scilly Isles in under 10 minutes, or kayak across the UK's highest and longest aqueduct. Alternatively, you can paddle along Dorset's prehistoric Jurassic Coast, visit the Lake District's sole inhabited island, which opens just five days a year, or paddle in self-indulgent tranquillity through the hustle and bustle of London.
Alongside detailed routes for each location, plus tips on wildlife and secret spots, Paddling Britain advises on where to stay and eat, getting there, and when to go. It also provides the low-down on everything you need to know for successful and enjoyable stand-up paddleboarding, from safety tips to kit, weather watching to paddling responsibly.
The author, Lizzie Carr, says: 'This book responds to the countless questions I receive from paddleboarders looking to explore new places and get new experiences from their SUP. Whether people want to take their families for a weekend adventure or enjoy a camping getaway with friends, Paddling Britain aims to answer these questions and inspire people to get outside and explore the UK water scene both coastal and inland.' AUTHORS: Lizzie Carr (lizzieoutside.co.uk) is Britain's best known paddleboarder and author of Bradt's Paddling Britain guidebook.
She is passionate about championing Britain's waters as rivals to international destinations. In 2016, Carr became the first person in history to paddleboard the length of England's waterways, solo and unsupported. She completed the 400-mile journey in 22 days, taking more than 2,000 photos of plastic pollution she encountered.
In 2017 Carr became the first woman to paddleboard the English Channel solo, while in 2018 she spent eight days paddling the length of the Hudson River. She dedicates much of her time to raising awareness of plastic pollution in the world's waterways (plasticpatrol.co.uk) and, thanks to a chip fitted in the fin of her paddleboard, collecting data to measure water temperature to help interpret the impact of global warming.
Updater for this edition Patrick Kinsella is a highly experienced journalist, editor and author who specialises in outdoor pursuits and adventure sports. Pat has written several guidebooks to outdoors activities, including Bradt's Caving, Canyoning, Coasteering 30 Exhilarating Adventures Around Britain plus 100 Great Pub Walks, Dorset: 40 Coast and Countryside Walks and Devon: 40 Coast and Countryside Walks.
He has also edited and contributed to dozens of Lonely Planet books, such as The Atlas of Adventure and The Joy of Water, and regularly writes for outdoor magazines and websites including CountryFile, Sidetracked and The Great Outdoors. On the water, as well as rafting in five continents, he has been paddling (kayaks, surfskis, canoes, rafts and stand-up paddleboards) since the late 1990s, and once set a speed record for consecutively paddling the longest lakes in England, Wales and Scotland in a single day.
