I’m Anu Aladin, author of Paddle London (Bloomsbury). The book includes 40 routes to paddle in and around London, from urban canals to stretches of the Thames. It is now available to pre-order on Amazon, the Bloomsbury site or other online bookshops. Thank you if you choose to order a copy early. It will be in shops from 9 April, the official publication date.

My SUP Stories brings together my paddling adventures, the people I meet on the water and practical SUP tips based on real experiences on the water.

Against the tide one way, with it on the return. Early morning paddles are my favourite… but night paddles on the Thames have their own magic, especially after a day behind a desk. Sometimes there may be an option for a break at a pub too. Publication day is finally here 💙 The Limehouse Loop & Olympic Park is one of the most urban routes in my book Paddle London.
