Welcome to Orford Sailing Club
Orford Sailing Club is a friendly club for sailors of all abilities, based on the Suffolk Coast. We have a regular racing programme of handicap and class racing including Wayfarers, Mirrors, Fevas, Handicap series and Novices, as well as occasional races for cruisers and local classes.
We welcome beginners and we are a recognised RYA Training Centre. We are also an RYA OnBoard club, and we run free sailing Taster sessions for adults and young people during the summer. If you would like to give sailing a try, see our OnBoard page.
If you are interested in becoming a member, you are very welcome to visit us in Orford. There is more information about club membership on our membership page.
