Activities

Morning conditions are generally good for waterskiing and by the afternoon, the wind usually picks up to a fresh force 4. In light morning winds with our expert tuition, novices will soon be setting sail solo. Afternoons offer exciting and challenging conditions for improvers and adventurous beginners, who will enjoy the wide range of boats and excellent choice of boards for all levels and conditions.

For less confident sailors, there are exhilarating rides with our instructors aboard Dart 16 catamarans or the chance to explore the surrounding coastline by kayak. Alternatively, there is plenty of snorkelling kit for you to borrow and explore the underwater world.

Back on shore, our tennis coach will be offering group sessions to brush up on rusty technique or there is plenty of time to enjoy an informal game. During the cooler hours, join one of our guided bike rides to explore the local area on a variety of routes to suit all abilities, or join in with a fitness class.

There’s always something gentle on offer to appeal to less energetic tastes. Relax by the pool, take a refreshing dip, play a game of boules or indulge in an aromatherapy massage.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Just came home from a week at The Seaside Hotel. I had so much fun I asked my mum if we can go again. She has just booked for 2 weeks in August. I did sailing, wind surfing, water skiing and lots of other things. Hello to Euan my instructor who was ACE. I want to go there every year.

Absolutely fantastic. Our best holiday ever. The team were brilliant, their enthusiasm was infectious meaning we were busy on the water whenever possible and the hotel staff spoiled us. We'll definitely be back!
