Kids Wingfoiling near Rye East Sussex
Rye Watersports has been a Royal Yachting Association centre since 1986. This year for the first time we are offering wingfoil lessons to children from the age of 12. We are based on the Kent and Sussex border near Camber Sands. which is only a 50 minute drive from Tunbridge Wells, and easy to get to by road or rail from all areas of Kent, Sussex and Surrey.
Our safe flat water lake is perfect for children to learn to wingfoil as they feel safe within a confined water area rather than the open sea. All lessons are run over two consecutive days from 10.00a.m to 4.00p.m, (12 hours).

A great introduction to this exciting sport that children will love. The lesson starts on a dry land where pupils learn the basics without getting wet! Once on the water the course progresses to WingSurfing across the wind, and tacking and gybing. The instructor is always close at hand on the water to give constant guidance and to instil pupils with confidence. Once children have completed Stage 1 & 2 they can book onto our private WingFoil First Flight Sessions .
