East London is a great area to live, study and work. It’s jam-packed with possibilities to explore and develop - it's one of a kind! Docklands is awesome for students, with amazing transport links, a gorgeous green environment, and some really cool spots to visit. Whilst you’re in the area you could:

• Get your beach vibes on (no sunshine required) at London’s only cable wakeboarding park.

• Explore art, nature and heritage in London's first dedicated art walk. This runs from the Olympic Park to the Greenwich Meridian with plenty of stops along the way.

• Take a ride on the IFS Cloud Cable Car and take in the epic views of East London.

• Grab some authentic Indian street food in unfussy surroundings at Thattukada restaurant.
