Pinkston Watersports Centre

Pinkston Watersports Centre sits at 75 North Canal Bank Street in Glasgow, just five minutes from the city centre, on the Forth & Clyde Canal.

It is home to Scotland's only artificial whitewater course alongside a flat-water basin filled with bathing-quality water, making it a notable paddlesports destination in an urban setting.

Operated by Glasgow Watersports Ltd, a registered Scottish charity and social enterprise, Pinkston was established as an official Glasgow 2014 Legacy project.

The centre offers coaching, club storage, meeting rooms, and equipment rental, catering to beginners and experienced paddlers alike. Its charitable mission focuses on increasing participation in watersports and promoting wellbeing through sport and recreation.
