Walk On Water

One of the most popular attractions for children in Hartlepool Marina is the "Walk On Water" feature which was established during the summer of 2008. You are invited to step inside an inflatable, transparent sphere and take to the water, just like a hamster in a ball, allowing those brave enough to be inside the balls to run, roll, spin and flip for a fun-filled eight minutes. In fact, if you go down to the waterside in Navigation Point, opposite the bars and restaurants, you will see, not only is it aimed for children, but for grown-ups, too! The literature does say 'hen parties catered' for so I can quite imagine, when the summer comes along again, there's likely to be even more fun. The area, quite naturally, is cordened off with the balls attached to a rope with officials on hand for safety reasons.
