Bala Adventure and Watersports Centre sits on the shore of Llyn Tegid — Wales's largest natural lake — and offers a genuinely wide range of activities for all abilities: kayaking, canoeing, sailing, windsurfing and stand-up paddleboarding on the water, plus climbing, abseiling, gorge walking, archery, mountain biking and white-water rafting on and around it. Highly rated, qualified instructors run everything from hour-long equipment hire to full RYA courses, taster sessions and team-building days, with a minimum age of 8 for most water activities. The lake itself is a beautiful, tranquil setting steeped in Welsh myth and legend, roughly 45 minutes' drive from Tywyn — a great full day out for families or anyone wanting to try something new.
