Single handed dinghy sailing should be one of the must do things on the wishlist of any visitor/tourist to Goa.
Goa Kayaking, (which is a member of the Goa Yachting Association) in association with Goa Sailboats and Goa Clube Aqua, has now launched Dinghy Sailing in Goa, to promote the sport to a wide range of people, with no sailing experience required at all.
Goa Sailboats brings sailing to the aspiring recreational sailor, who just wants to feel the wind in his hair (and sails!) and experience the simple joys of sailing, in a most uncomplicated and user friendly setting. And when it comes to Dinghy Sailing, there's no better place than the Hollant Velsao Bay, for your first or your fifteenth sailing excursion!
This cruising area, enjoys comfortable trade winds and line of sight sailing in aquamarine blue waters, with plenty of sunshine throughout the year. This also makes it one of the finest and safest sailing areas on the West coast of India. Visitors and guests/couples will be able to enjoy the simple exhilirating thrills of sailing, in a safe and most simple way.
We will be using the Walker Bay 10 - the most easy of sailing dinghies but with all the joys of sailing bundled in! or the Seabird, a 18 footer which can carry upto 4 adults comfortably.
An accomplished sailor will accompany two guests in their quest on the waters for the next 2.5 hrs. as they make a pretty picture, scurrying with the wind in the Hollant Velsao Bay. Learn the rudiments of sailing and a bit of hands on sailing techniques from our friendly sailors who are more than happy to share some of their sailing tips and tricks!
And to top it all, watch a gorgeous sunset from the waters - return fulfilled, as the shadows lengthen on the darkening waters! All launches/putin will be from Hollant Beach, Vasco da Gama/near Panaji.
