Sailing - 5 hours

Experience The Thrill Of Sailing Across Derwentwater On A Five Hour Mountainous Adventure

Derwentwater offers an ideal setting for a full day of sailing, with calm waters framed by surrounding mountains creating excellent conditions for all skill levels. Whether you choose a traditional wayfarer for a family adventure or a racing dinghy to challenge your sailing skills, there is something for everyone. Children and adults alike enjoy the thrill of gliding across the lake, exploring hidden bays and islands, and stopping off at St Herberts island.

Prior sailing experience is recommended for those using racing dinghies, while the wayfarer offers a more relaxed experience suitable for beginners and families. The combination of adventure, scenery, and hands-on sailing makes this activity an unforgettable way to spend a day on the lake. Freshly washed and sanitised wetsuits and buoyancy aids are provided for all participants, with a wide range of sizes available to ensure comfort and safety for every guest.

For those not wanting to wear a wetsuit, bringing a change of clothes or your own wetsuit is recommended. Wayfarer sailors may prefer a waterproof or windproof jacket to stay comfortable during their time on the water. On hot days, sun protection such as lotion and sunglasses is essential to protect against the glare. Our staff are dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all sailors throughout the five hour session.

This sailing experience allows you to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Lake District while mastering the wind and waves. Whether you are navigating the waters around St Herberts or simply enjoying the mountain views, this activity provides a perfect blend of excitement and relaxation. Join us for an unforgettable day on the water where you can create lasting memories with your family or friends in one of the most beautiful locations.
