Both sports courses (Sports and Surfing) run weekly in summer and alternate depending on the tides between English & Surfing and English & Sports. If a water sports activity has to be cancelled due to bad weather, it will be replaced by another activity, such as climbing, high ropes course, inflatable park, trampoline park or swimming.
