Whilst a few of our kites turn to their paddle boards when the wind drops, the club is considering offering a membership tailored purely towards Stand Up Paddle Board users who may wish to join us in the new year.
Though the Lakes may remain a preferred destination at weekend, here at the BLCC we have St Annes North beach on our doorstep and though best known for kitesurfing, it presents many opportunities to get afloat on calmer evenings.
Interested? Watch this space or drop us an email.
PLEASE NOTE THAT CRAFT SEEN OPERATING OUT OF THE CLUB ARE PRIVATELY OWNED. WE DO NOT HIRE OUT CRAFT, INCLUDING JET SKIS/JET BOARDS OR OFFER DAY LAUNCHES TO NON MEMBERS.
We are a popular North West water sports club situated beside the Squires Gate Lane Slipway, Starr Gate, Blackpool just a short distance from the end of the M55 motorway.
