frequently asked questions
Do I need a buoyancy aid ON THE WATER?
Yes! Wearing a buoyancy aid (PFD) is strongly recommended for paddleboarding, kayaking, and watersports to improve safety and keep you afloat if you fall in.
buoyancy aids vs life jackets?
A buoyancy aid helps you stay afloat while allowing freedom of movement, ideal for SUP and kayaking. A life jacket is designed to turn you onto your back and is used for higher-risk situations.
How should a buoyancy aid fit?
A buoyancy aid should fit snugly without restricting movement. It shouldn’t ride up when lifted at the shoulders and should stay secure when in the water.
Are buoyancy aids suitable for beginners?
Yes — buoyancy aids are ideal for beginners in paddleboarding and kayaking, providing extra confidence and safety while learning on the water.
Let customers speak for us
The optimal is a stable, light and fast kayak. The delivery was very quick. Very happy.
The seat is fine and exactly as you would expect, but I really want to talk about the service from Sandbanks. I got a refurbished kayak and one of the seats was missing a strap, but it was a few months after I had got it before we used it and spotted the problem. I emailed them fully expecting to have to pay for a replacement part given the length of time, and made that pretty clear in my email, but they immediately replied (on an evening) saying they would send a new one free of charge on receipt of pictures showing the issue. I absolutely couldn't fault the service. A different standard to another similar priced British company that I had a missing part in. Very grateful. In other notes, the whole kayak and package is super quality. Thank you all round!
Item arrived really quickly and was well packaged. Easy to unpack, inflate and assemble - took it out on it's maiden voyage down in Devon and had THE best time paddling around. The kayak comfortably sat 2 grown adults and 2 chunky Aussie Shepherds, so would definitely recommend if you're looking for an option with lots of space!
Big thank you to Johnny and Jordon for working out which fin I needed and their efficiency in posting it out and getting me back on the water. Amazing customer service.
Very useful bit of kit. Once adjusted to the correct lengths, straightforward to use and going to save some tired arms.
Absolutely fantastic board. I pre-ordered this ready for the 2026 season after spending most of 2025 researching my first 'proper board'. I have owned a sup for around 2 years and was at a point of needing to make the jump to a better board, after deciding it was a worthwhile investment rather than a passing fad!
The Sandbanks kit is consistently recommended amongst everyone I spoke to at my local sup spots, and I can see why. The board is super stable, the build quality is second to none, and it is light as a feather.
The attention to detail is great - the bag comes with plenty of storage - enough for all your extra kit and accessories, and the fiberglass paddle is excellent.
Thanks again, can't wait to be out on it again soon
First class service and top quality paddle board highly recommended
Great quality and absolutely superb customer care
Purchased my paddleboard last year after speaking with sandbanks and given some great advice. The quality and build is superb, I was kept fully informed on the delivery right from the order being placed and delivered, I have only had one problem and that was a split washer on the dust cap on the valve, I emailed and Johnny who sent one straight out to me.
I can say they deserve the 5 star rating
Great customer service, pump is as described, used for the first time the other day and it worked well. Purchased several things from Sandbanks and always delighted with my purchases.
Great service from start to finish and really helpful answering any questions
Super happy with my new paddle board used it for the first time today and I’m over the moon with it . Highly recommended
First class communication and delivery regarding the above kayak.
Have just used the kayak today for the first time today on the shropshire union canal. Weather not brilliant but still enjoyed our time. A few sherbets at the pub at the end of the paddle. Pack the kayak back into its bag and got the bus back to our starting point . Brilliant kayak and extremely efficient company.
