Madrid Kayak Polo
Madrid Kayak Polo – The Ultimate Water War for Stag Dos
Forget gentle paddling.
This is kayaking with contact, chaos, and bragging rights.
Madrid Kayak Polo takes a simple kayak session and cranks it up into a full-blown aquatic battle, where balance is optional, falling in is guaranteed, and the stag is very much a target. Expect splashes, tackles, collisions, and uncontrollable laughter as you fight for goals from unstable kayaks.
Competitive, ridiculous, and completely unforgettable — this is a stag-do classic with teeth.

What Is Kayak Polo?
Kayaking Meets Contact Sport
Kayak Polo is a real competitive sport (yes, there’s even a World Championship), but for stag groups it becomes something far more important: absolute mayhem on water.
- Two teams
- Kayaks instead of legs
- Basketball-style goals raised above the water
- One ball
- Zero mercy
Score more goals than the opposition… or at least make sure the stag spends most of the session submerged.
Expect to Get Soaked (That’s the Point)
The longer the match goes on, the wetter everyone gets — and the worse the balance becomes.
Shielding the ball with your kayak, blocking shots with your paddle, and accidentally capsizing your best mate are all part of the game.
Some lads stay dry.
Most don’t.
Everyone laughs.

Madrid Kayak with goals
Bring a competitive edge to Kayaking in Madrid. You’ll play a game of polo from kayaks and have an enormous laugh trying to balance in the water.
With our Madrid kayak activity, if you are the stag, you can expect to be ducked a few times, or maybe even tackled by a duck or two.
This version of kayaking causes a big splash with all of our groups. The more the game absorbs you, and the more water your clothing absorbs, the less you remember to keep your balance….and at the end only a few brave (and lucky) souls may remain dry.

- Amphibious duffers delight – some tips:
- Although relatively rare un the UK, Kayak polo is a serious sport with a World Championship and an agenda to be included in the Olympics
- It could be described as a combination of basketball, water polo and canoeing. There are usually 2 teams of 5 players (we’ll adapt that to suite your group size) – using kayaks of approx 3 metres length.
- The objective is to score more goals than the other team (and to be less water-logged…). You score in basketball-type goals elevated above the water.
- The good news for relatively initiated groups is that the canoes are great for shielding the ball, and you’ll be glad to hear you can “stick your oar in” – you can pass using your hands, or the oars.
- However, the bad news for the amphibious duffers among you, is that you’re gonna get well wet….
- Max possession is of the ball is 5 seconds, at which point many players of dubious skill levels tend to propel the ball “up the pitch” and give chase
- All in all an easy activity for your hen or stag group to get to grips with – both gals and geysers will have a whale of a time!
