Kent Canoe and kayak shop

Kent Canoes is one of the largest specialist canoe and kayak retailers in the UK. Our large Kent based showroom contains thousands of square feet of canoes, kayaks, sit on tops and all the accessories to go with them.

Whether you are a beginner or an expert, our team will be able to chat through your requirements and make suggestions as to the equipment that suits your use and level. As keen paddlers themselves, they are well placed to advise from personal experience and share the views of other customers.

With a large selection of items and brands stocked you can see in person, try on and sit in the boats. We offer great package deals on new boats and welcome part exchanges (subject to type and condition). For playboaters and river runners we also offer demo boats for you to try before you buy!

Getting a good deal

We believe that getting a good deal is about two things. Firstly, getting the right level of service so you can make the right choice and are not be pressured into buying the wrong product. Secondly, getting a great financial package.
