Watersport Lessons – Manley Mere

Lessons

At Manley Mere watersports has been at our heart since the beginning. Our Venue benefits from a number of key characteristic that make it ideal for both beginners intermediates and advanced water users. The Lakes depth is an average of 2-4m meaning that in certain area participants can stand up on the bottom meaning that falling into the water and getting back onto your craft is a lot easier. The lake benefits from being sandwiched between 2 open field which allows for greater wind speeds but the Lake also host several wind shadows that make paddlesports even easier.
