Location

We are located on the sheltered waters of the Medina estuary, Isle of Wight, which provides a safe, yet challenging, environment to learn to sail or canoe or to improve your techniques.The busy yachting town of Cowes is downstream and the county town of Newport, is 2 km further south.

Most of our courses take place on the Medina estuary, but many of our more advanced courses take place on the Solent.
