This is our new youth programme which is all about having fun on the water while learning to sail, at Christies Sailing Club we recommend our programme for ages 13-17.
(We also run Junior Start Sailing and Adult Start Sailing courses to cover ages from young to old, see the Calendar events page)

Teenagers are introduced to sailing and other related water based activities (including powerboats and stand up paddleboards) in a fun and social program. Our qualified and experienced instructors will teach the skills needed to maximise enjoyment of the activities. The club has a range of boats and equipment available and participants are given the flexibility to progress as they like.

Christies Sailing Club is located on a beautiful stretch of coastline at Christies Beach Esplanade. We are a family friendly club with a thriving junior, youth and adult membership, we are not just somewhere to learn to sail but a place to make friends and continue your sailing journey.

We provide the instructors, the boats, and the safety equipment, you just need to dress appropriately (advice will be given as part of the course) and have fun!

The cost of this programme is $150 and includes the first year club membership for participants. Participant numbers are strictly limited so book early to avoid disappointment.
