Anglia Sea Ventures

Day Sails offer a comprehensive hands-on sailing experience for enthusiastic sailors. They are specifically geared towards all abilities with the more experienced being encouraged to skipper and navigate.

The exact itinerary will depend on weather conditions and tides on the day but expect to join the yacht at 10:00 for coffee then after a safety briefing we will head out into the North Sea for a day sail. We may drop anchor off the coast for a light lunch or eat underway, returning to Ipswich by 17:00.

Lots of fun and great company!
