North Devon Wake Park has been chosen to host the UK Cable Wakeboard Nationals later this year, marking a major milestone for the region. As the top competition on the British wakeboarding calendar, the event will bring the nation’s best riders to the South West for the first time.
This is the first time the prestigious event will take place at North Devon Wake Park. Organizers say the selection is a strong endorsement of both the quality of the park’s facilities and the area’s growing reputation in the watersports community.
“It’s a huge opportunity for North Devon and the wider South West,” organizers said. “Not only will it shine a spotlight on some of the UK’s most talented wakeboarders, but it also highlights the passion for watersports that thrives right here in our region.”
Spectators can expect a weekend of high-energy action, with elite wakeboarders from across the country competing for national titles. The event is expected to attract a strong crowd and boost local tourism as fans travel to watch the competition.
The UK Cable Wakeboard Nationals will be held on August 30 and 31 at the park’s site in Higher Clovelly (EX39 5RY). The venue, already known for its wide range of water-based activities, will provide an ideal setting for the high-profile competition.
North Devon Wake Park offers more than just wakeboarding. Visitors can enjoy its aquapark, paddleboarding, ringo rides, and open water swimming. The event is seen as a chance to not only celebrate the sport but also promote the park as a key destination for outdoor activity and family fun.
With national attention turning toward North Devon, local officials and business owners are optimistic about the event’s potential to bring new visitors and long-term interest to the area.
“This is about more than just a competition,” organizers added. “It’s a celebration of community, sport, and the stunning natural environment we have here in North Devon.”
