​ADULT LEARN TO SAIL - OPEN TO ALL SKILL LEVELS!

Learn-to-Sail Course Outline
ACSC’s Adult Learn to Sail Class will teach you how to sail a small sailing dinghy in protected water and build your skills for bigger sailing adventures. Two weekend days, 12 hours of training, certified instructors, personal flotation devices, dinghy boats, and plenty of learning hilarity provided! Come join us!

For your class, be sure to bring:
- Close-toed shoes that can get wet
- A jacket
- Towel and change of clothes (including dry shoes) - You may need to get about thigh-deep in the water to launch/land your boat, and there's always the chance of capsizing, so post-sailing dry clothes are a must.  
- Lunch, snacks, and water bottle
- Sunblock
- Sunglasses and/or brimmed hat
- Your sense of adventure! ;)

ACSC will provide:
- Life vests
- Sail Boats
- Safety Boats
- Instructors with US Sailing and First Aid/CPR certifications
​
After completing this course, you're able to participate in ACSC's Open Sail Days on Saturdays, where you can come back to cruise around in the cove and show off your new skills with friends or family.

Family Learn to Sail!

We are proud to present the ultimate family bonding activity - Family Learn to Sail. This is a great way to introduce sailing to yourself, children and spouse. We focus on basic sailing skills and fun activities, to make both you and your child comfortable sailing on water. We instill the love of sailing for years to come.

Where we are located

Latitude 37.770620, Longitude -122.292485
Roads? We don't need roads. Or more likely we don't have a street address... The Alameda Community Sailing Center is located next to the Encinal Boat Ramp, on the south west shore of Alameda. An access road connects to Central Ave, behind Encinal High School.

In short if searching via google maps doesn't result in something that looks like the map below,
search for Encinal Boat Ramp we're in the same lot. Look for the sailboats.
