A lot of this is basic common sense - watersports can be cold and wet, but we can assure you that it's all worth it for the fun to be had!
The following list should be used as a guide:
- WARM clothing
- these clothes are likely to get wet, so please leave your Armani/Hilfiger gear at home
- jeans are very uncomfortable when wet, and can make you cold very quickly
- a warm hat and/or gloves are very effective to keep warm
- old trainers (again, may get wet)... welly boots can be dangerous as they fill up with water quickly
- COMPLETE spare change of clothing
- Wind AND Waterproof jacket and trousers
No-one will be allowed to participate in activities without the above
- swimming trunks/shorts/costume for wearing under wetsuit
- towel
- plastic bag for wet clothes
- money for course fee, and/or tuckshop
- strap for spectacles (string or otherwise)
