In Neuilly-Plaisance, KAYAKOMAT offers self-service kayak hire on the Marne without a staffed reception. After booking, an SMS code allows you to collect the kayak, paddle and buoyancy aid directly at the station.
How does the outing work?
The minimum booking duration is 2 hours. From the launch point, the suggested route heads to the right and turns back around the Pont de Bry: a straightforward out-and-back trip without a shuttle or vehicle to collect.
What to know before visiting
The station operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, subject to availability and navigation conditions. As the hire is self-service, check the weather and adapt the distance to your ability: the current and wind can make the return journey longer than expected.
Practical tip
One of the location's main advantages is that the station is on promenade André Devambez, around ten metres from Neuilly-Plaisance RER A station. Free parking is indicated nearby and toilets are approximately 200 m away.
An extra detail
The automated system removes the restrictions of conventional watersports-centre opening hours, particularly useful for paddling early or late in the day.
