Kernow Adventure Park is the only cable wakeboard park in Cornwall — set on a private lake near Camelford, in the wider catchment between Bude, Padstow and Newquay. The park combines wakeboarding with a wider activities portfolio (paddleboarding, an inflatable aqua park, ringo rides), which makes it a useful family or group destination.
What to expect
A two-tower cable for beginner and intermediate riders — smaller than the bigger London or Scottish cable systems but well-suited to learner sessions and progression. The Cornish weather is more forgiving than upland UK parks, and the season runs longer than further north. Kit hire is full; lesson packages cover absolute beginners through to first-trick coaching.
Practical notes
Open April through October. Wetsuit: 3/2 summer, 4/3 from September. Camelford, Tintagel and Bude all have B&B, self-catering and small-hotel accommodation. Bookings via the Kernow website. Combine a wakeboarding day with surfing at the north Cornwall beaches, a coast-path walk, or a Tintagel Castle visit. Most riders make it part of a wider Cornwall trip rather than a destination on its own.
