The Axe Vale Canoe Club Home Page

Hello, and a very warm welcome to the Axe Vale Canoe Club (AVCC) WEB SITE.

We are a lively club based in Seaton Devon offering a wide variety of canoeing disciplines including: Touring, Racing, White Water and Sea paddling.

After successfully completing a beginners course in a kayak or canoe, members can take part in a wide variety of events throughout the year.

Between the months of April to September, we meet every Wednesday evening for a "club night" paddle when we could be doing some skills practice, taking a trip up the river Axe or out to sea, maybe even learn how to "Cartwheel and Eskimo roll". In addition there will be opportunities to further BCU Skills assessments.

During the winter months of October to March, the club does most of it's paddling on the weekends. This is for 2 main reasons, the first being it is too dark to paddle in the evening and the second is that we get access to some fantastic sections of local Rivers! For more information as to what the club is up to, take a look at the "Events" and "Courses" pages - in fact, have a look at the rest of the site and find out all about us.

We have a range of fully equipped Canoes and kayaks including all the personal kit to go with them: buoyancy aids, cags, spray decks, helmets and over trousers.

The club house This is just the place for a nice hot shower and a cup of coffee when you get off the water.

This year we will be offering a new course for 9 and 10 year olds over the summer, please contact Hays Hunt for further details. Minimum age to become a club member is 11 years.
