Kingston Kayak Club is based at Albert Avenue
Pools Complex in Hull. On site we have a number of excellent
facilities which provide a wide variety of experiences to develop your
paddling and social skills.
- The Club House - Fronting
onto Albert Avenue is the Old Cottage Baths which have
been converted to provide us with a meeting place.
We have a large boat store, holding all the clubs boats;
male and female changing rooms; and a large club room to
meet before and after training. The club room also
provides us with a valuable space to facilitate training
and meetings. Unfortunately at present this needs a lot
of refurbishment to bring it up to the standard we would
like.

- The Outdoor Pool -
Next to the club house is the old Albert Avenue
Lido, recently refurbished to provide a unique
training venue for a host of disciplines.
Learning new skills on the indoor pool is all
well and good, however there's a lot more
incentive to make those support strokes work
when out doors and this facility gives us
an excellent venue to develop paddling skills in
an extremely safe and controllable environment.

- The Indoor Pools -
On Mondays and Saturdays we make use of the
2 indoor pools at the Albert Avenue Complex.
This provide an excellent asset which aids
us to teach beginner in a safe environment
while also being able to coach from in the
water more advance techniques.

- Prince's
Quay - In partnership with the
Prince's Quay Shopping centre we are
able to offer yet another fantastic
facility. The old dock around
the shopping centre provides us with
a great stage to demonstrate our
sport to the uninitiated.
Located in the centre of the city we
use the facility to conduct training
sessions, bell boat races and the
highlight of our yearly calendar;
Hull Canoe Polo International .
