Hove Lagoon is a unique place and a very cool water sports location. Not just a great water sports location of the U.K, but a great one in the world, that’s right, a globally cool water sports location. Why you ask? Because of the sheltered, shallow lagoon, which beginners use to get to grips with the water sports that they do. That is why it is one of the best water sports centres in the world. As well as this beginner sheltered shallow lagoon, there is other things too. It is situated at the West end of the Hove Lawns. Hove Lawns is a very nice stretch of green situated in front of the seafront in Hove. Hove commissioners got ownership of  Hove Lawns and this became the Western Lawns. It included the site which is now the Hove Lagoon. It was not a simple transaction because the conveyance was subject to the rights of the Lord.
