Get out in the sun
Our summer camps take place between July and August. The camp is for 6-18 year old's and is a great sport for your kids to enjoy. Over the course they learn about wind, how to rig a boat, sail and most importantly make friends. For enquirers about Sail Training or Junior Training please contact info@blsc.ie
Swim, Sweat and Gears
As one of our most popular events the triathlon takes place once a year around the last week in June. The triathlon is enjoyed by hundreds of people each year. At the end of the day a large barbecue is made as a well done and to send you on your way.
