At SailBerkeley we are enthusiastic about wind, water and the beauty of sailing. SailBerkeley offers the finest private sailing instruction in the SF Bay area. Learn to sail with confidence on the lovely San Francisco Bay. SailBerkeley's private sailing lessons depart from the East Bay. Leaving from the Berkeley Marina, our students sail in some of the windiest waters on the Bay. At SailBerkeley we do serious sailing - expect a thrill. During your sailing lesson expect the boat to heel 20-30 degrees - this is when the boat lifts out of the water and really gets moving. There are many companies that will take you out on the SF Bay for a nice gentle ride where you can sit on the deck nibbling on hors d'oeuvres and sipping a glass a riesling. That ain't us - we do real sailing. On most of our sails, that glass would end up in the water. Sign up for a sailing lessons today at SailBerkeley.com.
