"I the Mr has one no idea How to use it went down the beach with it i looked like a dying jelly fish out there just kept going in a circle so spent the rest of the time using it as a sunbed fml  "
It can be hard work on the sea unless the water is completely flat, which is rare around here. Plus the currents in the Bristol Channel are wild, not to mention the dangers of an offshore breeze (rare thankfully).
Try starting out on a river or lake first until you're feeling a bit more confident, then have a crack at the sea.
Just my opinion. |

Yes taking it in the sea as a novice is not ideal lol. I would deffo get some practice in before trying that out. As the saying goes don't try to run before you can walk lol |

Llandegfydd reservoir near pontypool have to pay to self launch, etc. However if your a novice there's a centre you can hire from and get lessons etc. There's a club also that does regular social paddles and such. Be aware if using inland waterways some are subject to licence and you can be fined (unlikely I suspect). |

"Bit further out but North Dock in Llanelli is great but it does get busy there."
Is North Dock Llanelli open?
Last year it was shut due to algae in the water…it would be great if it’s able to be used again. |
