Eastbourne Sovereign Sailing Club is in the beautiful seaside town of Eastbourne on the East Sussex coast and is a family club, run by its members. Situated right on the promenade on the seafront, it is in an idyllic location and the sailing conditions are unrivalled.

The club is well known in the dinghy sailing world for its friendliness and for its strong organisation. We welcome new members and work hard to make them feel part of the club as soon as possible. We cater for experienced sailors and beginners alike and our members sail a variety of classes, including Laser, RS800, Spitfite, RS400, Contender, Topper, Dart 16, Buzz and Pico. There are examples of a number of other classes as well and our club racing is very well attended.

The club operates a Training Academy which offers a number of RYA courses for both adults and juniors and across the ability range. We own our own training fleet, which consists of Picos, Toppers and Laser Vagos and our courses prove to be very popular. We welcome visitors to the club and have hosted numerous national championships and open meetings over the years The clubhouse provides very good facilities, including a galley, bar, lounge area and changing rooms with hot showers.

Members enjoy numerous social events throughout the season, including our very popular “Sea Week” during August, when lots of people take some time off work and spend long days at the club enjoying some sailing or relaxing on the beach and in the bar!
