East Coast Watersports is the first Wingfoil school in the U.K.to teach this exciting new sport around Essex and Suffolk.
We run two hour courses in small groups of four, or individually on a one-to-one basis. Using our expert local knowledge our training sessions will take place on the most favoured beach, giving you the best progression possible – from the lagoon at PointClear, to the sheltered waters of the River Stour, to full-on beach front of Frinton-on-Sea. When training you are welcome to use your own kit or rent ours.
With our 20 years’ watersports experience competing at a professional standard around the globe, you’ll be in great hands.

What Our clients Say
★★★★★
Simon’s teaching was brilliant.
I’m new to wing foiling and water sports. Simon explains his lessons really well, which makes it so easy to learn and understand.
Simon was really helpfully when it came to buying my kit. It is also good that, he is mobile and picks the places to learn, that suited me.
If you’re thinking about starting up water sports, then I highly recommend getting in touch, to book your lessons.

★★★★★
Simon is a great tutor! Encouraging and positive from the start and I’ve really benefitted from his tailored feedback and advice.
It’s fab that East Coast is mobile, so can meet you where the best conditions are on the day.
I’ve also really appreciated being able to text Simon questions about where is safe/ best to go once you get you own gear. Having someone with this knowledge is crucial in the early stages.
I’d highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn wing foiling to book a lesson with East Coast. Give it a go and you might just get the bug!
