Holiday Camps

‘Drop and Go’ Sailing and Watersports camps for kids every school holidays

We run kids Sailing and Watersports camps for kids every school holidays. Just drop your children off at the clubhouse between 8:30 and 9am and collect them at 3:00pm.

They’ll spend the day on the water learning to sail, paddle boarding, swimming, and exploring the harbour under the guidance and supervision of Australian Sailing qualified instructors.

The camps are appropriate for kids who can sail, all the way down to complete beginners. Our instructors are qualified to teach kids of all abilities.

Camps run for 5 day blocks, Monday to Friday, and we curate the syllabus based on the experience of the kids participating in each camp.

Camps are designed for children aged 7 - 15 years of age.

Participants must book in for a minimum of two days, but they do not need to be consecutive days.
