Get on the water at Shadwell Basin Outdoor Activity Centre

Started in 1976, the Shadwell Basin Outdoor Activity Centre is a community project which has transformed a derelict site by the Thames into a nationally recognised facility for watersports and outdoor activities.


On water activities take place either on the seven acres of Shadwell Basin, or on the Thames itself. Local people remain actively involved, and they offer a range of beginner and other courses in sailing, powerboating and canoeing and kayaking, as well as a climbing wall and high ropes.
