Welcome to Axe Vale Canoe Club

About
Axe Vale Canoe
Club (AVCC)

The club is based in Seaton, Devon and offers a wide variety of canoeing disciplines including: touring, white water and sea paddling.

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 has hot showers and facilities for refreshments.

We have around 95 members but are always looking to include new members to strengthen the club and provide you with new skills and an enjoyable time paddling. If you are interested in how to join us or our beginner and improvers courses, then look at Interested in Joining or the Courses page.
