Whether you are a family, a couple, a group of friends or an individual our friendly, highly qualified instructors will help you get out on the water. Our aim is to grow your knowledge and confidence while having a lot of fun.
Come along and try something new with one of our 2 hour taster sessions, gain a qualification over a weekend, or spend the week with us developing the skills you need to get to the next level.
The Firth of Forth offers spectacular views of Edinburgh and Fife, a wealth of nature, and a stunning natural environment so there really is no better place to grow your love of watersports.
At Port Edgar Watersports, we believe the friendly community and healthy lifestyle gained from watersports can help everyone. As a social enterprise we are dedicated to supporting people from disadvantaged backgrounds to gain access to watersports to make a real difference to their lives. When you use the Centre you are supporting us to achieve this.
We are a registered RYA and British Canoeing / SCA training centre, recognised by Adventure Activities Licensing Authority (AALA), and all our instructors are checked through Disclosure Scotland’s PVG (Protection of Vulnerable Groups) scheme.
