Are you looking for a new way to get outdoors and find something you can enjoy with a challenge, learning and fun?
Banff Sailing Club are once again taking part in the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Discover Sailing event and are inviting members of the
public to come along and try sailing for free.
We are holding our open day on Saturday 26 th May with the club 707’s ready for sailing.
The event will take place from 1100-1300hr and 1400-1600hr and anyone interested in trying sailing and taking up the sport should come
along to Banff Marina.
This event is open to adults; older / teenage children should be accompanied by an adult.
The event is free and a great opportunity to try a new activity and enjoy some time on the water in beautiful Banff bay.
You will also be able to meet members of Banff Sailing Club and find out more about us and what we do and offer.
