Welcome to Grafham Water Sailing Club

The best inland sailing in the UK

Grafham Water Sailing Club is an active family-friendly club located in Cambridgeshire a few miles from the A1 and A14. Our members sail dinghies, windsurfers, day keelboats and small sailing cruisers. We are a recognised RYA Training Centre and we also have groups for model yachting, stand-up paddleboards and virtual sailing.

We offer a wide range of activities including racing on Wednesdays and Sundays, sociable sailing sessions on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, plus Adult and Youth coaching on Saturdays. If you have never sailed before our training school is open to everyone and runs taster sessions and full RYA courses in sailing, windsurfing and powerboating. We also run social activities, quizzes and seminars throughout the year.

As a club, we are well known for hosting a wide range of championships and open meetings and some of our sailors have progressed to sail at International level including the Olympic Games and the America’s Cup.

We are open to everyone and welcome new members. If you would like to visit the club or have any questions or feedback please contact us at office@grafham.org
