Abbey Sailing Club is a welcoming and inclusive sailing club in Abingdon-on-Thames, focused on making sailing available to everyone.  Located on the River Thames in Oxfordshire, we provide a relaxed and supportive environment for both new and experienced sailors.

With plenty of sailing clubs focusing primarily on competition and racing, here at Abbey Sailing Club we have evolved into a club with broader appeal for a diverse range of water sports.  

Whilst sailing is still at the heart of what we do, including beginner friendly races twice a week, in recent years we have welcomed kayakers, canoeists, paddleboarders and  swimmers.  All of whom are welcomed into our family friendly club.  The social side of the club is very active through the Spring, Summer and Autumn months, with the club house and riverbank popular with activities on and off the water.

Families often bring picnics down to enjoy by the river, children play games on the lawn, with social sailing popular during the summer evenings and weekends.

Our club is run by its members, for its members.  A key ethos in the club is that everyone pitches in, and everyone is welcome.  We keep our membership fees as low as possible, to help ensure the widest range of community has the opportunity to join us, should they wish.

We are perhaps Abingdon's best kept secret!
