West Kirby Beach and Marine Lake
Hailed as one of the most reliable venues in the North West for great conditions. West Kirby has essentially two spots: It has a massive beach (Dee Estury) - Tonnes of room for safe launching and landing. Then there is the Maine Lake, epic speed sailing destination!! (Seriously world class) Basically the closer to the wall you go the flatter the water and the faster you go... assuming your nerve doesn't break first. Please be mindful of other beach users however, it is a popoular place for horse riding and other beach persuits. West Kirby Marine Lake is on the Wirral Peninsula with stunning views of the Welsh Hills and the Dee Estuary, this man-made saltwater lake is a popular wingfoiling destination. Also popular spot for pumpfoil, windsurf, sailing, paddleboarding and sailing. To wingfoil on the lake you need to book into a lesson with Northern Kites or buy a daily or monthly membership from the Wirral Watersports Centre. West Kirby Marine Lake is a great place to learn to Wing Foil, it has the benefits of being enclosed on all sides creating flat water, as well as being on a coastal location with clean steady winds. The lake is around 5ft deep, 1km long by 250m wide. No tides or currents make it easier to stay upwind and practice your technique with the safety of being on an enclosed lake. The Northern Wingfoil Centre by Northern Kites are an RYA Training Centre and RYA School with highly experienced instructors and Safety boat cover.
