Located east of Wykeham, six miles West of Scarborough, North Yorkshire Water Park originally comprised four specialist fishing lakes and a larger lake which is now dedicated to water sports.

For many years, local water sports clubs and individuals have been sailing, windsurfing, model yacht racing and open water swimming at the destination.

North Yorkshire Water Park was launched in July 2017 with an Aqua Park. Thrill seekers now enjoy further activities such kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, tandem kayaking as well as a range of other outdoor leisure facilities.

The Dawnay Estate substantially expanded the Water Park in 20212 providing new attractions such as wakeboarding and the new 70-seat café building.
