My SUP Stories

Paddle London: The Best Places to Go with a Paddleboard, Kayak or Canoe (Bloomsbury) is my first book. It’s an invitation to see the capital from the water. A practical and inspiring guide to exploring in and around London, it features 40 urban and rural routes across the Thames, canals, rivers, docks and reservoirs, combining clear maps, photos and essential guidance with history, wildlife and public transport–friendly access.
