Yellowave Beach Sports

The UK's first beach sports venue

Yellowave Beach Sports Venue and Barefoot Cafe

Beach volleyball, beach soccer, climbing and the most chilled out Barefoot Café on Brighton seafront. Yellowave Beach Sports Venue, Brighton’s only 2012 training base, is an oasis and still a bit of a locals’ secret. There’s loads of ways to get involved. Simply hire a court at £20/hour, join in a weekend lesson at £5/hr or book your own private taster session or kids’ party for £55/hr for up to 12 people. Plus there’s a bouldering for climbing (6yrs+) £2.50pp and a free sandy play area for little tots. If that’s too energetic simply sit out on the sun deck and enjoy something from the Barefoot Café. Breakfasts, delicious salads, interesting sandwiches, organic coffee, wine and beer are all available served by a super friendly team of staff. The venue is open year round and in the spring and summer seven days a week from 10am-10pm weekdays and 10am-8pm at weekends. To book a court, lesson, BBQ, corporate event or to find out more T: 01273 672222 or visit www.yellowave.co.uk
