About Windermere Canoe Kayak
Windermere Canoe Kayak is the Lake District's premier paddlesport and bike hire centre, operating from multiple waterfront locations on England's largest natural lake. Based at Ferry Nab in Bowness-on-Windermere with additional branches at Waterhead Ambleside, they provide easy lake access and expert advice for visitors of all experience levels exploring the UNESCO World Heritage landscape.
Their hire fleet includes single and double kayaks, open Canadian canoes, stand-up paddleboards and rowing boats, alongside a full range of mountain bikes and electric bikes through their sister brand Total Adventure Bikes. All equipment comes with buoyancy aids and basic instruction, and they stock a well-curated paddlesport and cycling shop on site for those looking to buy their own gear.
What sets Windermere Canoe Kayak apart is the combination of prime lakeside locations, a vast hire fleet and knowledgeable staff who know every bay and island on Windermere. Open seven days a week throughout the season, they cater equally well to families wanting a gentle paddle around Belle Isle and experienced kayakers planning a full-length lake crossing.
