Sports and Fitness Clubs in South East London

The South-East – home to “the Garden of England” and the South Downs. Quiet, calm and peaceful or extreme! Because alongside rolling fields and sedate villages, Kent and Sussex host a whole range of extreme sports for you to try. 

The fittingly named Extreme Ventures offers you a chance to try a hand (preferably two) at rock-climbing. They have two centres across the South-East: an indoor centre at Brighton, and their outdoor walls found at Harrisons Rocks near the Sussex border with Kent. Go Ape also has a few stations across the South-East with courses at Leeds Castle, Bedgebury, Crawley.

There’s a big coastline along the South-East, which means lots of opportunities for water-based extreme sports. Kent has two kitesurfing schools – Kent Kite Surfing School and Aquilo Kiteboarding School. There’s also the Brighton Kitesurf and SUP Academy (BKSA) which provides lessons at five locations along the south coast. Back on dry land, there are lots of opportunities for petrol-heads to get motoring. Kent is home to one of Britain’s most famous racetracks, Goodwood. 

Anything where you are flying has to be counted as extreme – and there are lots of different options from which to choose. If you want to learn how to fly a plane, Boultbee Flight Academy and The Real Flying Company offer a chance to soar through the air in vintage aircrafts. There are two great venues to try skydiving in South-East – GoSkydive and Headcorn Skydives. Finally, you could try some gliding. South Down Gliding Club offers the opportunity to operate their mini-gliding planes across the Sussex scenery.
