Updated Guidance on Kiting during the Coronavirus Pandemic

We will be reviewing the latest information given from government today, whilst communicating with other similar outdoor recreation, national governing bodies and emergency services over the next few days.

The Covid 19 pandemic has lead to us currently recommending not going kiting inline with the government regulations. This has not changed and remains our strong guidance for the time being.

We will be reviewing the latest information given from government today, whilst communicating and consulting with other similar outdoor recreation, national governing bodies and emergency services over the next few days.

The situation is constantly evolving and it is great to see positive forward steps planned by the government to ease the current lockdown in structured phases.

We know everyone is keen to get back out and enjoy the sports we love. (I know I am!). Rest assured we are aiming to change our guidelines as soon as it is suitable and responsible to do so.

Many considerations are in play including reduced rescue services both on land and afloat, limited access to parking near beaches and kiting venues both coastal and inland, new behaviours that need to be adhered to whilst participating.

We aim to re-issue further guidance in the middle of the week.
