Great news – we have just had a delivery of lots of great new windsurfing kit suitable for all abilities. Whether beginner or expert we have some of the best equipment in the country to get you out on the water windsurfing what ever the wind. Why is good equipment important ? Windsurfing equipment has a huge impact on your enjoyment of your time on the water. Back in the good old days of windsurfing just getting the board to the water was a project in itself. Improvements in equipment weight not only help transporting equipment but have a big impact on the water. Lighter sails , lighter carbon masts make windsurfing less tiring. You can windsurf for longer with less effort. Changes in board design and construction have made it mush easier to improve your windsurfing. Modern boards are easier to sail and have a wider wind range than boards that have gone before. This means you don’t have to worry so much about getting the choice of board spot on. You can choose a big board that is easy to sail and you can up haul yet you can be confident that as the wind picks up you will still be able to stay in control of the board. Again less hassle more fun. We believe in offering you the very best windsurfing equipment available as it means you have more fun , less hassle and you improve quicker.  Which is what it is all about. Lagoon Beach club chooses to use Fanatic boards and North sails. Club members can use all our windsurf equipment as much as they like for no additional charge.  The club offers daily, monthly and yearly membership options.
