Blessington Sailing School

Blessington Sailing School operates on the Blessington Lakes at Blessington, County Wicklow, offering tuition on the sheltered inland water of the Poulaphouca reservoir. Courses cater for children and adults, from first sessions afloat through to more advanced dinghy skills, with boats, buoyancy aids and qualified instruction provided.

The lakes are a fine setting for learning, with a large expanse of water framed by the Wicklow hills and plenty of birdlife along the shoreline. Sailing runs mainly through the warmer months, and places on summer courses are usually booked in advance.
