About

Iken Canoe

Situated at Iken Cliff on the quiet upper reaches of the River Alde, a few miles inland from the coast and close to Snape Maltings, Iken Canoe rents out canoes and kayaks for sessions of up to two hours. Buoyancy aids, paddles, dry bags, a river map, and a full safety briefing all come with the hire, making it accessible to a wide range of skill levels. The river here is tidal and sheltered, giving a very different feel from open-water paddling on the Suffolk coast.
