Windsurfing

Windsurfing Program

The thrill of windsurfing is second to none. This program caters for those keen to get into windsurfing, right through to those wishing to go on and become instructors.

The program is designed to assist participants in obtaining the necessary skills to deal with all weather conditions, recognise their own limitations and have respect for the elements and provide them with the skills and experience to enjoy the thrill of windsurfing.

Discover Sailing Experience

A Discover Sailing Experience is an approximate three-hour sailing experience at an accredited Discover Sailing Centre, without the technical detail of a course, for families, friends, or work colleagues. Having the chance to use the Centre’s social facilities is as much a part of the experience as is getting out on the water.
