Galway Bay Sailing Club

The GBSC is delighted to welcome you to this years West of Ireland Cruise from Galway to Cornwall and back again.

If our last great adventure to Lorient was anything to go by then it should be a fun packed cruise in company far beyond the Aran Islands for once.

If its your first time heading into the unknown then this is the opportunity for you to sail in company and experience distance shores for the first time and benefit form the company of some old salty sea dogs who have been there done that and that are on hand to help and guide you along the way.

While there are suggested departure dates below, please do feel free to arrive in Cornwall before the rest of us if that suits your schedule! However, make sure to join the flotilla for the Craic in Falmouth on July 6th.
