What Is a No Canoeing Sign?

The No Canoeing Sign is an essential water safety and access control sign used across the UK to inform users that canoeing is prohibited in the designated waterway. This is particularly important in areas where conservation, safety, or high boat traffic require limited access to small, manually propelled craft.

Featuring a bold red prohibition symbol over a pictogram of a person in a canoe, this sign offers immediate clarity and helps enforce local bylaws, navigation rules, or environmental regulations.
