Before you join
- Adult beginners
The club meets on Thursday evenings between April and October and requires members to complete 50 metres in the water. Newcomers should use the published email contact before attending rather than relying on the seasonal time alone.
- Junior paddlers
The public club group describes adult and junior membership from secondary-school age. The current KLMG page does not publish a fixed junior starting age or supervision arrangement, so families should confirm the suitable route first.
- Equipment
The club can supply a craft, paddle and personal flotation equipment, with coaches present. Bring waterproof layers and dry clothes, then confirm that suitable kit and a coaching place are available.
- Accessibility
Not confirmed in the sources checked. Ask the club directly.
- Where the club paddles
Seasonal club nights use Kilbirnie Loch. The current page gives the on-water time but no public entrance, storage location or launch point. The whole loch is therefore shown for orientation.
