The shelter of Elly Bay is the perfect location to learn how to sail. Our sailing instructors are accredited by the Irish Sailing Association. We offer all levels of training on the water. We follow the syllabi of Irish Sailing and adhere to their high safety and teaching standards.

Returning students may build on skills they learned the previous year and record sessions on their Irish Sailing Passport.

We maintain a strict ratio of 1:6 in our sailing classes as recommended by the Irish Sailing Association. Our practical sessions are supplemented by sessions ashore focusing on rigging and de-rigging, rope work and safety on the water.
