What a summer it's been!☀️👫

Our Summer Holidays Kids Club are officially over, and what a way to finish! The kids had the BEST time, made so many memories, got stuck into plenty adventures (and mud😑), and most importantly, had sooo much fun!

A huge thank you to this group, and to every other child who has joined us for Kids Club over the summer holidays! You have all made this summer so special, and we have loved every minute of it!

But don't worry, Kids Club isn't over! Our Saturday sessions will still be running, and there are plenty more adventures to come.

Good luck to all the kids heading back to school this September - we hope you have an amazing school year and we will see you again soon!📚😊

And that's a wrap!🥳🥂

What an absolutely incredible night! The Waterfront Pizz Up for West Mersea Town Regatta was definitely one to remember... From the early set-up to the packed-out venue, here's a little behind the scences of the night!

A huge shoutout goes to the incredible team who worked so hard behind the scenes to make the night as special as it was. Every little detail was brought together by an amazing group of people, and we couldn't more grateful for what they created. Thank you so much to everyone who was involved!

And of course, a massive thank you to everyone who came along and made it such a memorable night. The turnout was absolutely incredible, the atmosphere was even better, and it wouldn't of been the same without every single one of you!❤️

A night we will all be talking about for a long time, thank you all!

PLEASE READ!

As a Watersports company, the tide times and heights are extremely important to us, to ensure safety for not only our staff and customers, but for locals and anyone visiting the island.

We want to inform everyone that from August 13th to August 18th, the strood will be completely flooded. Due to the tide being so high, the flooding can potentially begin an hour before the times posted above, and could last an hour long.

If you are planning to travel across the strood on these dates, please ensure you have taken the tide times into consideration and have planned accordingly.

Please do share this post, as we would like to ensure that everyone is aware and safe!

You ask and we deliver… Merch drop #2 is HERE!👕🥳

We had an absolutely amazing response to our adult and kids tops, and as promised, we’ve now got brand new jumpers!

👕Cream Jumper with Olive Green Print | £30

These jumpers are perfect for those cooler evenings by the water and easy to throw on after a long day of watersports (wink wink)!

We will have them available during West Mersea’s Town Regatta. So if you’re heading down, make sure you come and say hello, grab a jumper, and show off your new MIW merch!
