Where To Go Wakeboarding & Wakesurfing In Hong Kong

The best wakeboarding and wakesurfing schools, coaching and rental places in Hong Kong.

Is it time to try wakeboarding and wakesurfing? A popular add-on to amp up your junk boat trip or a nice way to get off sandy beaches and into the sea this summer, this water sport sees you standing on a wakeboard (a board with foot bindings, like in snowboarding!) towed behind a motorboat, riding its wake (the wave a boat generates as it moves through the water).

Wakesurfing is an alternative where you ride the waves of a boat without being strapped to the board or pulled by a rope (much like surfing!). Start out with some professional lessons at our pick of the best wakeboarding and wakesurfing lessons, coaching and rental places in Hong Kong.
