Exmouth Watersports

Exmouth. The simple name takes us back in history. It's the most ancient waterside village in Devon and it's considered the gateway to more than 180 million years of our planet's history, visible on the UNESCO Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. It's also a terrific place to enjoy watersports, with a 2-mile long beach, the estuary of the River Exe and the open waters of the English Channel. 

Because of all of these reasons, John and Steve founded Exmouth Watersports, a company for teaching, offering and providing the best tuition, lessons and courses in different disciplines to locals and visitors. Windsurfing, paddleboarding and kayaking are our specialities, available on private, group and family group basis.

What else makes us a great school for learning or practising your favourite sport? Our team! We know that it sounds like a cliché, but we are surrounded by professionals who are here because of their passion for watersports. SOme of them have experience of teaching watersports in glitzy international locations, others started their careers as students of ours and stayed on to become instructors. 

At Exmouth Watersports, we also have accommodation, lodges and cottages, for you to stay and be comfortable with your family, friends and loved ones while taking part in watersports courses. We also have the best equipment on the market, so you don't have to worry about safety. and we're also members of the Royal Yachting Association (RYA), which is the national association overseeing water-related activities and instructors.

 Kayaking has been one of the favourite water sports in Exmouth (Devon) for years. That's why our school, Exmouth Watersports, offers tours and courses around the incredible 2-mile long beach, the Exe Estuary and the Devon coast to beginners and people with more experience alike.
