Get out and Paddle...
The circumnavigation of Wales is an interesting paddle that takes in both fresh and saltwater. It includes stretches on the Rivers Dee and Severn. The River Dee stretch is memorable for those who get their timings right and are able to surf the Bore up to Chester; the Severn returns the paddler to saltwater. The river stretches are separated with a number of days cruising on peaceful canals.
Following this of course is the multi-day coastal trip along the Welsh coastline to wrap things up.
This trip makes a good intro into multi-day paddling with a purpose.
