Watersports
Brighton is a
playground for
watersports, with
everything from sea
kayaking to diving,
sailing, windsurfing,
wakeboarding and
the popular sport of
kitesurfing – the sea is
often dotted with guys
and girls on boards
being powered up and
down the coast by
brightly coloured kites.
Training is offered in
all these sports.
