Great Days Out in Sussex with Sussex Watersports
Welcome

right on the beach at Goring Gap in Worthing, West Sussex, where
we have some of the best watersports conditions in the whole country.
In addition to our online UK Water Sports Shops and Worthing Water
Sports Shops we also have a fleet of top quality kayaks
for hire and in the summer months we also operate high adrenaline
Ringo Rides from the beach using
our awesome wakeboarding boat.

Water Sports Activities in West Sussex
During the Summer you can find us right on the beach at Goring Gap in Worthing, West Sussex, where we offer kayak hire, private speedboat trips, wakeboarding, water skiing, kneeboarding, and of course our famous high adrenaline "Ringo Rides". Our beach is safe and clean and the bathing water meets the highest EU standards. We have free parking all day, private changing facilities, toilet block, 5 acre grass park / picnic / BBQ area, and some great local Cafe's and ice cream vendors nearby. This is THE place for beach water sports activities in West Sussex so if you would like to join in the fun then get yourself down to Goring Gap this Summer.
Kayak Hire
We use the unsinkable BIC Ouassou and BIC Bilbao sit-on-top kayaks as they offer the perfect blend of safety, stability, ease of use, and robustness. All Kayaks come with top quality matching BIC twin bladed super-light paddles and BIC backrests for your comfort and convenience. The BIC Ouassou is a one-man kayak that can be paddled comfortably by children as young as 6 and by adults alike. The BIC Bilbao is a 1+1 kayak that is perfect for adults of all shapes and sizes plus it has a jump seat so a small child can also go along for the ride.
Kayak hire is available most weekends from early May to the end of September but please call ahead first on 01903 249642 / 07970 833076 to confirm that the conditions are suitable.
Ringo
Rides
We have two categories of Ringo Rides, fast and slow. Fast rides are for the daredevils and adrenelin junkies out there and involve high speeds, multiple fast wake crossings, skimming turns, and the inevitable risk of falling out unless you hold on tight! Slow rides are more sedate and are designed for the younger or more cautious and take place much closer to the shore with slower speeds, wider turns, and virtually no chance of falling out. The choice is yours!
Fast Rides: - Choose from the 2 man "Double Trouble", the 2 man Binar sofa style, the 3 man "Triplet", or the awsome 4 man sofa style "Sonar". This year we will also have the "Double Binar" which will see 2 pairs of riders each in a Binar both being towed at the same time on seperate lines for an amazing double-up "bumper car" thrill ride.
Slow Rides: - Choose from the 4 man "Alligator (which is perfect for kids), the "Binar Cruise" which is a steady but still exciting cruise to Worthing Pier and back for 2 people, or the "Sonar Cruise" which is another steady but still exciting cruise to Worthing Pier and back, this time for 4 people.
Ringo Rides operate most weekends from early May to the end of September but please call ahead first on 01903 249642 / 07970 833076 to confirm that the conditions are suitable.
Wakeboarding, Water Skiing, Kneeboarding
We are always keen to get people out on the water and introduce them to the thrills of high adrenalin sports such as Wakeboarding, Water Skiing and Kneeboarding. If you fancy giving any of these a try, or if you are an experienced rider looking to grab a few sets with a fun local club, then please pop down and see us and we'd be delighted to take you out for a blast.
These activities operate most weekends from early May to the end of September but please call ahead first on 01903 249642 / 07970 833076 to confirm that the conditions are suitable.

Safety is always our number 1 priority and we operate in a very controlled and risk-averse manner. All of our Beach Staff are trained and very competent at their jobs and are always on hand to help and to keep a watchful eye on participants. Equipment is all of the best quality and thoroughly inspected at the start of each day and before / after each hire. Tow ropes are always of the correct specification and our boat is kept in tip top condition and maintained regardless of cost. There are always 2 people on the boat, the driver and the"spotter", who is there purely for your safety, and our drivers are all highly experienced Ski Boat captains with many years of experience under their belts. Everyone taking part in our activities is supplied and fitted with a complementary top quality 50N buoyancy aid and needless to say we are fully insured for Public Liability up to £5M. For your safety we will always withdraw activities with immediate effect if unsuitable or potentially dangerous sea or weather conditions develop.

We are open to the public every weekend from March until the end of October and every weekday during the main school holidays (weather permitting). Kayak Hire is available at most states of the tide. Ringo Rides are more tide dependent so can only take place 2 hours either side of high tide (i.e. if high tide is at 12:00 then Ringo Rides will run from 10:00 to 14:00). Please always call ahead first on 01903 249642 / 07970 833076 if you plan to make a special trip.
