Event Description:

The annual Sailing Week has been a huge success since it began in 2015. Cork Sports Partnership are delighted to support and promote this programme under the West Cork Islands Sports Hub. 

Training boats will include Topaz dinghies, Kayaks and other bigger training boats.  Participants are in for 5 fun filled sessions on the waters of Lawerence Cove, Bere Island where they will learn how to sail and kayak. During the week you will learn about weather, tides, wind and the basics of sailing and kayaking on the crystal clear waters of Bere Island. 

The course will be very practical with the majority of the training delivered on the water, while the theory section will be given around that. 

There are two weeks of Introductory Sailing to choose from:

  • Monday 19th July - Friday 23rd July
    • 10:00am - 1:00pm (Over 16yrs)
    • 2:00pm - 5:00pm (Under 16yrs)
  • Monday 26th July - Friday 30th July
