Learn the art of smoothly powering sideways on these Hovercraft Experiences in West Sussex! Ever since we saw these things cross the Channel we wanted to pilot one and now you can with these fun, hands on experiences near Crawley.


The Hovercraft Blast session will give you a superb introduction to the mad world of hovercrafting with around 10 minutes' driving time. If you opt for the Extended Experience you have more time to hone your hover skills with around 30 minutes at the controls.

You and your fellow budding hoverers will be met at the venue and as introductions are done, you will hear a little bit about how hovercrafts work and be shown the controls during a thorough familiarisation session. These small personal hovercraft rigs have uprated engines, so are even more agile, and fast, as well as being pretty noisy too, so it'll be a challenge to see if you can get to grips with one!

During your hovercraft experiences in West Sussex you will take it in turns to have a go at various skills tests designed to improve your piloting technique. After a while you should be starting to get a feel for the craft and being able to fling it into (and out of) corners with a good slide, all to get that unmissable feeling of floating on a cushion of air.
