Extremelives – Hayling Watersports
As well as moving our national UK offices to Hayling Island we have also now set up an exciting new watersports centre situated 2 minutes from the famous Westbeach windsurfing and kitesurfing spot, and 5 minutes from the main powerboat launch area for Langstone harbour.
Alongside the already popular sports of kitesurfing and windsurfing at this venue we will soon be offering courses, sessions and clinics in powerboating, wakeboarding, dinghy sailing, yachting and even surfing at some nearby spots.
Hayling Island is well established as a watersports mecca – they say that windsurfing was actually invented here back in the 60s! Due to its position at the end of the Solent it regularly has wind when other south coast locations are struggling. It also has a huge sandbar, which benefits new and experienced riders alike. The sandbar creates an ideal and safe location at low tides for those learning and progressing well as kicking up some great waves further out for those looking for some action! With the lovely Langstone and Chichester harbours either side there is always something to do both on and off the water.
The centre is set up as an open and social place for anyone interested in watersports whether you are looking for a meeting place, wanting to check the weather forecast or just a break from the weather. Non-participating people, friends and family are also very welcome! If you're interested in organising a group or team social, then the centre is an ideal place to come for a fun and relaxed afternoon or evening.
We have a large inside lounge area downstairs, free internet stations, WiFi access, the latest sports magazines, a great music library, and refreshments available (tea, coffee, soft drinks and bottled beers). We also regularly display some of the latest work from up-and-coming sports photographers and artists.
We also have a sunny outside courtyard area with table and chairs – ideal for anyone looking to top up their tan or just sit back and chill out. We also have regular BBQs and parties throughout the summer so please come and join us!
