Liverpool Watersports Centre

Kayaking in the Royal Albert Dock was one of the best things I done in Liverpool. The instructors are really friendly and make it a fuss-free experience. Once we were in our kayaks and had they had explained where we could go they left us to it. £15 for 1 hour is really good and you have plenty of time to Kayak around the dock once you get there.

Fabulous place, great sunsets and not busy.Come and try out the amazing facilities here, the staff are wonderful, my son had kayaking lessons here for 6 months and we now go kayaking around the coast of Anglesey.The prices are so reasonable and we'll definitely be hiring kayaks again ,now the weather's getting better.There's no better way to explore the Albert Dock and surrounding docks than being on the water

Having previously attended a children’s birthday party here (& loved it) we decided to do the same for our boy on his big day.The set up is ideal, if you’re booking the Aquapark activity, you can opt to have use of the party room which is a good size for around 15 kids, with a few extra chairs and tables around the edge of room to place party items and for mums & dads to sit.The room is painted white and is an ideal blank canvas to dress up according to your theme. The large window looks out onto the water creating a nice backdrop.The staff here are all fantastic! Super knowledgeable and professional yet incredibly friendly. Mark, Bren & Alex are a brilliant team and you can tell they love their job and their environment, they feel very much ‘part of the furniture’ here, in a good way! They really elevated our experience of the centre and made us feel so welcomed and comfortable.We felt that the children were very safe under their guidance and whilst they were given all the necessary safety measures, they were also encouraged to have fun.We really appreciated being allowed to get there a little earlier to decorate the room. They opened up and left us to it but were on hand for anything we needed.We ordered pizza delivery for all the children which was a great idea pinched from the previous party we attended! For reference, we used Dominos on London Road, they have delivered here several times so they will be familiar with the set up (just a tip if you don’t fancy making food - the kids loved it).There is a cafe that occupies a space at the centre (FIKA) where, should you want to chill whilst the kids are in the water, you can get a cuppa and some cake. This place is a separate business but still feels very much a part of the centre and on each visit here, the staff have been absolutely lovely. Very friendly and helpful.There’s lots more than just the Aquapark at Liverpool Watersports Centre, including kayaking, paddle boarding, open swimming, sailing. It really is a gem of a place and worth noting that they are a charity. Be aware that the Aquapark activity goes into hibernation over the autumn and winter months, due to weather changes but call to check.All in all, we had a fantastic time and highly recommend Liverpool Watersports Centre to everyone!

Brilliant place,, parking available, great facilities, instucters excellent, well worth it check it out on explore liverpool,

Having tried the pedalo and aqua park I can thoroughly recommend Liverpool Watersports Centre. Having gone just to use the pedalo, we couldn’t resist the aquapark and for such a low price, it was incredible value. A really enjoyable set of activities for a perfect price!

I was a bit nervous to try this out but I’m so glad I did - the guy at reception showed me the course and told me to go at my own pace. Some people there were very fast and had all the professional gear but I had a great swim in a costume and swim cap (they ask you wear a bright one so they can see you). There are mussels growing on the walls of the dock which were nice to see - the water is relatively clear and mildly salty. The lockers are 20p although many people leave their things out - it felt like a very safe and welcoming place.

Spent a lovely Sunday afternoon here on my paddle board. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is a Fika coffee shop here too if you need food or drink. Highly recommended.

Great experience for my daughter and her friends on her birthday. The inflatable was great with lots to do and the staff were very friendly.Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun outdoor activity.

Took the nephew here to have a go at duel kayak. 100% would recommend. Get 1 hour which is plenty of time for the little ones and plenty of water to explore. We had our own wetsuits but you can hire them there. Life jackets were provided as part of the price. Staff super helpful and enthusiastic about what they do. Changing room with hot showers, lockers and loos which is just what you need. Popped in the cafe first and Greta value with nice coffee and toasties to keep you warm. Would recommend heading there a tad early as car park gets a bit full so might have to park round the corner (only 5min walk)

The people here were brilliant. Very welcoming and helpful. I went on one of their Pedal boats and the aqua park with a friend and had an amazing time. Do yourself a favour and visit these people for an amazing time!
