Sunsail Sailing Courses

Welcome to Sunsail's Sailing Schools

Sunsail is one of the world's oldest sailing schools with more than 25 years' experience in teaching people how to sail and improving their yachting skills.

Our Sailing Schools originated in the UK and have since spread their winning formula throughout the Americas and the Asia Pacific regions. Our sailing classes in the Whitsundays provide a popular and delightful destination to learn sailing.

Learning to sail opens up the doors to many amazing new life experiences.  Not only will you gain a new skill, but you can go on to enjoy an unlimited range of holiday and social sailing experiences all over the world.

For those who already have sailing experience, our courses progress up to RYA Coastal Skipper standard, to help you further develop your ability and confidence, as well as providing important certifications.
