Sailing Day in Dorset




About the experience
Product ID: 11558
Before you can set sail on the water by yourself in a boat, there is much to learn about dinghy sailing. This day course in Dorset fills that need. With plenty of hands-on time at the helm, it provides a fantastic introduction to what sailing a small dinghy sailboat is all about. The training facility in Poole regularly conducts hundreds of courses and has a great setup for complete beginners.

Paid extra to upgrade to RYA Level 1, which we both passed. Really enjoyed the experience and would recommend them to anyone.

The instructor was great, the enclosed harbour in Poole was good to do the sailing too. It was great fun, a little harder than I thought it would be but I loved being out on the water. It was 20 deg Celsius outside yet the water was surprising warm you do get a bit wet when the wind picks up and the waves get bigger The sandwich for lunch was fresh and nice considering Im veggie. The only thing I would say that although 6 hours is what you need to get somewhat capable in the first stage of sailing, a 3 hour option would have been nice for this trip.
