Base
The Sailing Centre is right on the water's edge, with pier and slipway on its doorstep. Heating, catering, showers and office back-up provide you with a comfortable learning venue. The beautiful, sheltered Adrigole Harbour leads out into Bantry Bay on the South West Coast of Ireland - one of Europe's premier cruising grounds. There is an amazing abundance of marine life and sea birds to see every day. The region is warmed by the Gulf Stream, so ther is rarely a frost and waters are temperate.

The base is in the quiet village of Adrigole on the Beara Peninsula in West Cork, surrounded by the Caha Mountain range, great for hiking and mountain biking on days off. The village has four pubs, a shop and a church. The busy town of Castletownbere is 15 minutes drive west and the village of Glengarriff is 15 minutes drive to the east. Adrigole is 11/2 hours drive from Cork City.

Training and Cruising
All dinghy and keelboat training is provided in the sheltered waters of Adrigole Harbour, then out into the magnificent Bantry Bay and around Bere Island. Shore-based training is in the purpose built centre.

Initial cruising training will take place along the beautiful coasts of South West Ireland. The numerous harbours, bays and islands provide the perfect training ground.
