Schedule for Summer Courses for 2026

There are many options for your children to learn to sail, have fun and make new friends at Howth Yacht Club. We invite children aged 7 to 17 to discover the excitement and the joy of sailing, which can become a sport for life. Our courses are run by qualified Irish Sailing instructors and are held in the safe waters around Howth and Ireland’s Eye.  Most children enjoy participating with their friends, so why not liaise with your child’s friends’ parents or guardians to try and enrol them on the same courses to get maximum enjoyment, however if this is not an option, do not worry our experience team will make sure they have a great experience and meet new people.

Please note all juniors taking part in the junior courses are required to become members of the club with lots of on the water activities to enjoy throughout the year.
