Welcome to the Canberra Yacht Club Discover Sailing & Training Academy!

At CYC, we offer a clear pathway for kids, teens, and adults to progress from their very first sailing experience through to advanced racing. All programs are delivered by accredited instructors under the Australian Sailing (AS) syllabus, ensuring quality, safety, and consistency at every stage.

We pride ourselves on creating a supportive environment that is fun, safe, and affordable—whether you’re looking to try sailing for the first time or sharpen your racing skills on Lake Burley Griffin.

Registrations are now open for our upcoming training courses. If you can’t find a course that suits your schedule, we welcome expressions of interest so we can keep you informed as new sessions become available.
