We hosted the Southend HM Coastguard this afternoon to help raise awareness of dangers on our coastline and to pass on invaluable information on how to remain safe. These guys volunteer in their spare time to keep us safe and we really appreciate their time in popping down the cafe to meet and chat with our community.
We were then introduced to another super cool chap who coaches open water swimming. Mat offers private one to one or group sessions to enhance your ability whether you are training to become a triathlete or to just make the most of the glorious sea on our doorstep. You can either check out Mat’s Facebook page below 👇🏼 or you can pop into the cafe to pick up one of his leaflets explaining more of what he does. 💙🌊
Check this out with Wet n dry 🌊
This event is for regular users of our beaches and coastline, vital information on how to stay safe on the water 🌊

It was an early high tide today and we had two full groups out on the water trying SUP for the first time. I couldn’t believe how many other people were making the most of this epic summer. It was so good to see all the swimmers, kayaks, sailing boats, paddle boarders all in and on the water by 9am! #saltwater_sup #wetndryboardsports #essexcoast #essex #paddleboarders #standuppaddle #paddleboarding #watersports #chalkwellbeach #beachlife #summer2018

Tried paddle boarding for the first time this afternoon, after some great help from Nathan I was standing up �
Thanks for an amazing SUP session today!! Pretty choppy out there but was given lots of guidance and help to navigate the waves. It was brilliant - cannot wait to come back and do it again!!!!
So much fun, there was something very peaceful about being on the water! Will be booking again!! Thank you �
Recommend to anyone. Great experience. Nathan was brilliant and we had loads of fun.
Loved it! We had a private lesson with Jeremy, would definitely recommend. After my accident in 2009 I couldn’t surf anymore, but always been desperate to get on the water. Jeremy showed me some alternate ways to get up, he was extremely knowledgeable and took his time to make sure we were safe, knew what we were doing and told us things to consider going forward that would ensure we had a good paddle.
The lake was stunning, couldn’t have asked for a better day!
When’s the advanced course coming :)
If you want to try this great activity this is a brilliant taster session. Had a great time out on the paddle board today, Nathan was great. Lots of fun and I'm lots more confident now.
I loved the Saltwater SUP session so much that I got home and booked straight onto the next weekend’s class too!
Matt and Jeff were friendly, great instructors and made you feel completely at ease on the water. They let you do things in your own time, with helpful tips and tricks to get you standing and cruising your way along the coast! Most importantly they make sure everyone has fun from start to finish - I couldn’t recommend them enough! �
We are all now totally hooked and will be seeing the guys out on the water again for sure! �
Big thanks!
