Tootega
Description
Sit on top kayaks proudly designed and made in the UK
At Tootega we love all things to do with the water, but more than anything we have a passion for paddle sports. When we’re not busy developing new products, you’ll most likely find us out in the waves at the beach, or going for a leisurely paddle along a local backwater.
Luckily for us our passions and our work are one and the same thing, and we’ve been fortunate enough to travel the world in search of both paddling adventures and design inspiration.
We have a healthy respect for the roots of our sport and this is reflected in our brand name. The name Tootega comes from ancient Inuit mythology. Tootega was a wizened goddess who could walk on water, and was a protectorate of the Eskimo kayak fishing fleets.
We’ve drawn on all our adventures and experience to bring you a range of products, which are easy to paddle, with features exactly where you need them.
Never complacent, the Tootega range will continue to evolve, and to ensure your enjoyment lasts a lifetime all our kayaks are backed up by a lifetime guarantee.

Getting away on holiday at a busy time of year is always tricky! I've made it out to Benodet, France though and enjoying exploring the islands, inlets and and empty beaches that pretty much only a kayak can get you to. For me this is total escapism! Happy paddling James
British Canoeing have just launched some interactive trail maps for various canoe trails around the UK - great to see, and in time will become a fantastic resource! You can see more information, and the first few trails in the link below:

Stéphane from UCPA in France just sent this great little video of his team trying out some of their new fleet of Tootega Catalysts for the first time. UCPA will be using the Catalyst at their various sites across the alps this summer to introduce more people to the world of whitewater paddling - great to see! Thanks Stéphane and thanks UCPA! #tootega #catalyst #whitewater #kayak

It was cold, and getting late in the day. Steve and I started to make reasons not to go for a paddle, but Lily was insistent that we should get on with it. Within 35 minutes we were at the river and enjoying a calm and beautiful afternoon on the river. Sometimes even the most enthusiastic paddlers need a kick up the bum!!!
