What a fantastic evening! Last night we were joined by our friends from DLR Sports Partnership for a Sunset Paddleboarding session from beach.

The evening was part of Sport Ireland HER Outdoors week and we’re were delighted to put DLR Sports Partnership Louise and Kevina’s idea into action.

The group were mainly graduates of an earlier HER Moves programme and it was great to see everyone putting new found skills and confidence to use and sustaining participation after the conclusion of a course!

On the water there was time for a few snacks alongside the INSS Safety Boat. There will be more!

(And we have to give credit to our Pure Magic Watersports friends for all the help with the programmes!)

What another fantastic week of our Summer Courses! There was plenty of sailing, smiles, and fun on the water for all of our age groups. With the sunshine beaming down, everyone enjoyed lots of swimming and water park fun to cool off after their time on the boats.

A huge well done to all our sailors for another brilliant week - we can’t wait to do it all again!

Summer Week 6 - Completed ✅

What a fabulous week of sailing we’ve had!

The beautiful sunshine and warm weather made for perfect conditions on the water, and everyone made the most of every minute.

Throughout the week, our sailors enjoyed a fantastic variety of activities, from learning and developing new sailing skills to exciting races, fun games, team challenges, and plenty of laughter both on and off the water.

It has been amazing to see everyone’s confidence and teamwork grow with each session. Whether it was their first time in a boat or they were building on existing skills, every sailor embraced the week with enthusiasm, determination, and huge smiles.

A massive well done to all our sailors for another brilliant week, and thank you to our instructors and volunteers for making it such a fun and memorable experience. We can’t wait to do it all again next week!
