Infinity Sport Kitesurfing

The flat, windswept stretch of beach near New Romney is where Infinity Sport has set up shop for serious kitesurfers and curious beginners alike. This isn't a leisurely seafront stroll - it's a working water sports school where you'll see people launching massive kites and skimming across the water on boards. The shallow bay here is genuinely ideal for learning; the wind patterns are reliable, and the space feels properly spacious without feeling crowded.

If you're already competent on a board, you'll appreciate the conditions. If you're a complete novice, they run lessons - expect to pay for tuition, naturally, as kit hire and instruction don't come free. Families with older kids interested in action sports will find it absorbing, though younger children will get bored quickly unless they're actually getting wet themselves. Plan two to three hours if you're watching or learning.

What works brilliantly is the proximity to the holiday parks dotted around New Romney. Parkdean Resorts Romney Sands is barely a mile away, making it easy to base yourselves there and pop over if conditions look good. The beach itself is wide and fairly austere - not a traditional seaside charm job, but that's rather the point. The wind that makes kitesurfing viable also means it's not a sunbathing destination. Go for the sport, not the scene.
