Adventure Challenge

Details

A highlight in Poole's social events calendar, Poole Afloat encourages people of all ages to enjoy an abundance of water based activity.

The 13th annual boating and watersports event plays host to exhibitors from the area who will line the beautiful quayside whilst visitors enjoy an on-water experience with the ever popular Try-a-Boat feature in Poole Harbour.  With over 30 exhibiting companies and 17 boats on the water, the event is set to be a real crowd pleaser.

Those wanting to have a go and get afloat will be able to experience a variety of on-water activities including stand up paddleboarding, canoeing, sailing, RIB rides and more all inside the marina.

Try-A-Boat* is a very popular attraction, which does not offer pre-booking, so make sure you and your family come down on the day to arrange a time slot to get out on the water.

Each session is £2 and kids go Free!**

You don't need any boating experience, our experts are on hand to help you.

*Try-A-Boat sessions are subject to weather and availability and booked on a first come first served basis. A small fee of £2 is chargeable to those taking part from 16 years upwards.

**Try-A-Boat is free for children from 8 years up to 15 years.
