About
Longham Lakes, is located close to the Dorset town of Ferndown, with ample parking and great facilities.
Take a leisurely paddle around the larger of the two lakes and spot an abundance of wildlife which calls the lakes their home. After the AquaPaddle there is a chance to chat and meet new friends at the visitor centre. The Lakes are Adaptive Paddler friendly.
AquaPaddle Bournemouth is led by Lynne and helped by her wonderful Crew. If you would like to Volunteer and become a member of the local Crew, please contact the local AquaPaddle Captains through the Discord Comms System or email AquaPaddle
The route is 3 times around the lake and the whole route is a path along the lakeside so supporters can cycle or walk to spectate from any part of the route.
The Launch point is close to the visitor centre and there is ample parking. It is ideal for Adaptive Paddles with easy access to the water.
There will also be time to relax and chat with the other AquaPaddlers after the event, over a hot drink. Make new friends and plan outings of your own.
