Started in 1995 by a small group of budding paddlers in the Mallaig area, the club currently has around 50 members. Although still centred around the west coast fishing village of Mallaig, we have members in Fort William , Inverness and other far-flung corners of Scotland.

Just about anyone can paddle a kayak or canoe, so if you would like to have a go, contact our membership secretary Joan. You don't need to be young and/or super-fit -  our members includes all ages!
