This event will be the first of an ongoing series of CYC 'OutThere' experience sessions to be delivered by Chelsea Yacht Club commencing this September school holidays.
The format is relaxed and casual, with the primary focus being FUN. Trained instructors will support participants to be able to try a range of water activities including Stand Up Paddling, Windsurfing, dinghy sailing plus beach activities and a social BBQ afterwards.
