Wet and wild Matt Eaton rounds up the best watersports in town from wakesurfing to SUP boarding
Flyboard Hong Kong The flyboard is not for the fainthearted. The latest in extreme water sports, this personal watercraft will send you flying through air and across water. With proper instruction, almost anyone can start flying during their first five minutes. From there you’re limited only by your creativity. Flyboard Hong Kong offers private classes for one or two hours for up to six people. hkflyboard.com
What’s SUP If dragon boating and windsurfing are not up your alley, stand-up paddle-boarding (SUP) may be the relaxing water sport you are searching for. SUP is for everyone, even if you don’t consider yourself particularly athletic. You can rent a board for one hour for $80 or the whole day for $350 at the Aqua-Bound Centre on Stanley Main Beach. You can even try your hand at SUP yoga with Island Paddle HK.
