Canoeing has gained in popularity in recent years and for those looking to find out more about the sport then please turn your attentions to our guide. Written by Anna Heywood, the guide will provide everything that you needed to know from history to techniques used and some of the important equipment that you'll need before paddling your way away from the shore.
