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 .
