Happy new year everyone!

We are looking to get started with some wing racing! We are going to be starting slightly earlier then we did last year to really make the most of the seabreeze!

See you all there!

After a great Christmas and New years, we are back open once again!

Hopefully santa got you all some lovely wing kit, and now all you need is someone to teach you how to use it!

If not and you've been thinking about giving it a go, why not learn a new skill in 2026 and learn to wingfoil!
