Check availabilityFrequently asked
Do I need to know how to swim to do water sports?
For most activities (snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding) basic swimming ability is recommended. Life jackets are provided. Scuba diving requires a minimum swim test. Always declare non-swimmers when booking.
Is equipment included in water sports bookings?
Yes — all essential equipment (wetsuit, mask, fins, board, life jacket, paddle) is included in the activity price. Operators carry everything you need; just bring a swimsuit, sunscreen and a towel.
What age is suitable for water sports activities?
Most introductory water sports are open from age 8–10. Scuba diving certification courses typically start at age 10–12. Jet skiing and parasailing usually require participants to be 16 or over.
