Dinghy Sailing

There can be few more enjoyable things to do on a sunny day than dinghy sailing in warm sea breezes on sparkling Sydney Harbour.

It is often said that dinghy sailing is the purest form of sailing and the best way to develop core sailing skills that, once learned, are easily transferred to yachts.

Flying Fish offers Australian Sailing (AS) and Royal Yachting Association (RYA) accredited courses for all levels.

Whether you’re looking to gain a qualification or just sailing for fun, our top-notch instructors are here to help you through your sailing journey.

Windsurf & Paddleboard

There is nothing quite like windsurfing. The sense of freedom and exhilaration as you skip across the water like a Flying Fish is all-embracing.

To learn this fabulous sport is a beautiful thing a bit like learning to ski. But watch out it’s addictive! It won’t be long before you’re checking the wind and skiving off work every time the anemometer hits 15 knots.

And when there’s no wind what could be better than an early morning SUP (Standup Paddleboard) session. Excellent for fitness and mental health and a great thing to do with family or friends.

Check out our Windsurfing and SUP lessons and courses. Once you have mastered the basics why not come down and hire a board.

Check out our sailing dinghies, stand-up paddleboards (SUP’s), and windsurfers available for hire in Middle Harbour.

We have removed the hassle factor of ownership so you can arrive like a rock star to find your equipment ready for you on the water’s edge.

Get out there for a few hours to get your watersports fix.
