Accreditations and Licensing 2022

Saltwater SUP holds UK accreditations and official licensing. 

AALA LICENSE

We hold a current AALA License, a HSE license that is legally required to take under 18s on paddle board trips without the child’s parental/legal guardian being present.

For any watersport activities (most familiar watersport activities include canoeing, kayaking, dragon boating, wave skiing, white-water rafting, improvised rafting, sailing, sailboarding and windsurfing) to be licensable, they need to be done on ‘specified water’ – this is the sea, tidal waters (eg estuaries), inland waters more than 50 metres from the nearest land excluding any island or on turbulent inland waters.

Having the AALA license enables us to run BSUPA courses including Born to Ride and Born to Race, Taster lessons, teaching under 18’s how to paddleboard properly and safely adding lots of fun to learning.
