WELCOME TO SWANSEA SAILING!

Team racing, Fleet racing, Casual sailing, learn to sail sessions, and some great socials, we’re proud to offer something for everyone regardless of if you’re a seasoned pro or if you have never sailed before!

We sail twice a week out of Tata Steel Sailing Club in Port Talbot with Wednesday afternoon beginner and casual sessions (followed by evening socials!) and race training on Saturdays.

If you want to get involved send us a direct message on our Instagram (@swanseasailing) to let us know you've bought your membership and we'll add you to our group chat where you'll find socials information and session sign ups!

Social Sailing:

Our beginners sailing sessions are a great opportunity to take a break from academics and get out on the water - whether you have experience sailing or not! 

Beginners sailing sessions are held at Tata Steel Sailing Club on Wednesday afternoons; finishing in time for the evening social. RYA qualified instructors run the sessions, giving you the opportunity to learn new skills and develop your sailing competency - we would love to see you there!

Whether it is a beach bonfire, pub golf, or the infamous Spartan Curry Night; socials are great opportunities to interact with people from all areas of the club. Follow our Instagram @swanseasailing for more information on the socials. 

Team Racing:

If you wish to take your sailing to the next level & take part in sailing competitions, our Saturday race training is for you. Racing on the team will give you the opportunity to compete all over the country, including at BUCS and Varsity. 

We run our own sailing event annually - Swansea Spartan (February) - during which other universities join us in Swansea for a weekend of sailing as well as two socials they will never forget!

Our race trials (to competes in offical races as for example BUCS) are in early October. All information will be posted on our Instagram page and memebers chat! 

Summer Sail Week:

This year we sailed around Athens and beautiful Greek islands on our annual Summer Sail Week and were living the Mamma Mia dream. Summer Sail Weeks is a chance for all members, experienced or not, to test their yachting skills while enjoying beautiful views, amazing sunsets & hot weather and the awesome Mediterranean nightlife. Further details on Summer Sail Week 2027 coming soon!
