Course Bookings

Our sailing courses are extremely popular, so to secure you a place, we require a FULL payment two weeks prior to the commencement of the course.

What to bring with you

Shoes - Two pairs, one enclosed (no sandals or thongs) for the water, aqua booties or reef walkers are great and one dry pair for on land.

  • Pants - Shorts or track pants are fine over swimmers.
  • Torso - T-shirts woollen jumper, rain jacket, lycra rash vest
  • Hat - We recommend to wear a hat at all times outside, base ball caps are the best. Sunscreen is provided.
  • Towel - we get wet!
  • Food - Bring if you wish, the club has a fish and chip shop and soft drink machines.
  • Water - water bottles are strongly encouraged and can be carried on the boats.

We find that it is good to bring two sets of wet sailing clothes each day as there is a reluctance to get back into wet clothing after lunch.
