Make the most of your hire session with a paddle to The Jolly Sailor Pub

Updated: Mar 23, 2021

Enjoy a leisurely paddle session with friends and family before indulging in delicious food and drink at the traditional English pub, The Jolly Sailor. There's something special about spending time on the water with loved ones; topped off with a hearty meal at a pretty, waterside pub. Our unique location on the River Hamble at Premier Marinas Swanwick means that we are located a short paddle (approximately 0.5 miles) away from the picturesque and popular pub, The Jolly Sailor.

The Jolly Sailor is the perfect English Country pub overlooking the water.

When planning your visit to The Paddle Centre, you could make the most of your hire session by combining a visit to The Jolly Sailor. Start your experience by parking for free in our dedicated car park; collect your pre-booked stand up paddle board, kayak or double kayak and receive a safety briefing by our expert team before setting off up the river to the pub for lunch or dinner. On arrival at the pub, simply moor up on the pub's dedicated pontoon and find a host to seat you at your pre-booked table. Choose from a wide selection of delicious food and drink before making your way back to The Paddle Centre.

Discover a range of delicious dishes including Steak & Tangle Foot Pie, Hand-Battered Fish & Chips and The Jolly Sailor’s famous Burger.
