Dragon boating is a colourful action packed way of getting your activity group out onto the water. The challenge is to get everybody paddling together, in time, that's not as easy as it sounds! We have two boats "Clifford" and "Eric". Each boat can be crewed by up to 20 young people or 16 adults, we recommend a minimum of 12 people per boat.
