The Rock Sailing Club Easter Regatta 2016 again offers visitors to this famous part of Cornwall the chance to sail on the beautiful Camel Estuary and Padstow Bay.

The Club is situated about 5 miles to the west of Wadebridge and opposite the picturesque fishing port of Padstow. For those who have not visited before, Rock Sailing and Water-ski Club is a very family orientated club offering a warm welcome to sailors of all standards. The Clubhouse has a first floor clubroom with panoramic view over the Camel Estuary with a well-stocked bar and fabulous food.

Martin Hough the Club's sailing Commodore said "the great thing about our Easter sailing programme is that racing is always at one end of the day, which leaves sailors and families plenty of time to enjoy all the other activities the area has to offer".

The Club looks forward to welcoming you this Easter.
