Synopsis

Discover the River Thames as most people don’t get to see it — from the water.

Paddle the Thames is the essential guide for canoeists, kayakers and paddleboarders eager to explore Britain’s most famous river. From the Thames’ rural beginnings in the Cotswolds to its majestic passage through London and out toward the estuary, this book reveals the river’s beauty, wildlife and history in stunning detail.

Inside this guide, you’ll find:

  • Comprehensive paddling routes covering 347km of the River Thames
  • Detailed access and launch information for canoes, kayaks and SUPs
  • Wildlife insights describing the Thames as a “wildlife superhighway”
  • Historical highlights — castles, palaces, locks, gardens and “liquid history” landmarks
  • Practical advice on planning, safety, tides and navigation

The Thames isn’t just London’s river — it’s a paddler’s paradise. Clean, green and peaceful, it offers adventures for everyone, from short family outings to multi-day expeditions. This guidebook rediscovers the real Thames and helps paddlers reclaim John ‘Rob Roy’ MacGregor’s iconic river.
