The Watersports Academy in Sandbanks, Dorset, has launched a new series of adult club evenings for the Summer 2026 season. These sessions include a Windsurf Club, Paddleboard Nights, and Late Night BBQ events designed to bring the local community together through coastal sports.
The club evenings operate on a flexible pay-as-you-go basis, meaning participants do not need a long-term membership to join. Both members and non-members are welcome to attend the sessions, which focus on providing a social atmosphere for people to enjoy the water after work.
Located at 15 Banks Road, the facility is an officially recognised training centre for the Royal Yachting Association (RYA). This status ensures that all sessions are led by qualified coaches to maintain high safety and training standards for everyone involved.
The academy is currently the only school on the Sandbanks Peninsula to offer a full range of on-site amenities for its guests. Participants can use the changing rooms, lockers, and hot showers, while a café and shop are also available on the premises.
Because the centre is closely linked to FJB Hotels, the program also serves as a leisure option for hotel guests. This includes people staying at the nearby Sandbanks Hotel or Harbour Heights Hotel who want to experience the harbour during the summer months.
