What is Sailing?
Sailing and windsurfing are two great sports for getting you active and energetic, outside in the fresh air.
Once you've learnt the basics, you can actively explore your local stretch of water then join a sailing club full of like-minded people to go off cruising or racing. No matter what your age or experience, there is a course for you. It won't cost you a fortune, and there's an RYA Training Centre near you where you can get started.
