A great Easter activity for the family! Go egg-splore the calm waters of the Exeter Canal by canoe or kayak. Locate all six easter eggs to win a creme egg!
Minimum age 8 years.
Details
We have hidden 6 colourful easter eggs between AS Watersports and The Double Locks Pub (approx 1.5 miles). They are well hidden so you will need a canoe or kayak to spot them! Each egg has a name and when you get back to AS if you can tell us the colour and name of each easter egg OR what the connection is between the names you can collect a creme egg! This is a great activity for young members of the family but the gentle paddle to the famous Double Locks pub is great for all ages.
There is no extra cost to take part in the easter egg , it's all for the same price as our regular hire service!
Where - AS Watersports Exeter Canal Basin EX28DP
When - We will have the easter eggs hidden out on the water on the 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th and 21st of April.
How to book. Book a kayak or canoe on online for one of the selected dates. Our online booking is super easy so just choose your craft of choice, book the amount of time you would like and choose a date. Pre booking is recommended. On the day any egg hunters in the group will be given an egg trail checklist.
Timing suggestions - Two Hours is enough time to get to Double Locks and back. Three hours is enough time to be a bit more leisurely and enjoy some refreshments at Double Locks. We think canoes or double kayaks are the best family option.
