Common questions

Where can I do sailing in Dublin?

Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club, Dublin Bay Regattas Ltd., Dun Laoghaire Motor Yacht Club, East Coast Garda Sailing Club, Howth Yacht Club, Irish Sea Offshore Racing Association (ISORA) and 25 more. Each appears because Irish Sailing lists them, not because we assessed them.

Do I need my own equipment for sailing in Dublin?

Not to start. Accredited centres supply equipment for beginner sessions, which is part of what the accreditation covers. Confirm what's included when you book, because hire and instruction are often priced separately.
