Sailor's Log: The Vikings Voyage

Dive into the latest adventures, tips, and stories from the Vikings Sailing Club Malta as we chart new waters together.

My name is Andrew Bonnet, I am a Maltese, 11-year-old boy and I am also a wheelchair user. I have always been interested in sport and I have practiced quite a few of them over the years. I started horse riding at the age of three and when I was six years old, I started to train para swimming because this sport allows me freedom of movement and helps me to gain more upper body strength. I have always loved the sea, because the water allows me to relax and move freely. I have also practiced para rowing and became aware of inclusive sailing in ...

Featured Sailing Courses

Wish to learn sailing? Have a look at the various courses we offer. Contact us for more details. 

The adult intermediate course acts as a fun, relaxed way for adults to improve their sailing. An opportunity to spend time on the water and to practice and gain confidence in the boat. This course is open to Vikings members only.
This course follows on from the Level 1 sailing course. Sailors will spend most of the sessions on single or double handed dinghies learning how to tack, gybe and follow a course around the marks.
This beginners course is aimed for those adults who have no sailing experience. We have a low instructor to sailing ratio so individual attention is guaranteed. The sessions will take place on our teaching boats under the supervision of an instructor. By the end of the course you will be acquire basic skills such as rigging, basic knots, tacking, gybing and sailing around a course.

Getting ready for a busy winter!

After a very successful summer season we now embark on a very busy winter schedule.  The club will be offering several courses for kids and adults from beginners to more advanced sailing. Sailing sessions take place mostly during the weekend however we are available for private sessions during the week. The club also offers an inclusive sailing programme. 

Whether it’s racing or cruising you are interested in, we invite you to join our club!

New to sailing?

Never sailed? Not a problem. We offer beginners courses to get you on the water in no time. 

Age is just a number. What matters is that you can move around easily and are ready to learn. If so, sailing is definitely for you. If you are 7 years or over you are welcome to join one of our courses.

The club has its own fleet of boats. On joining a course, sailors may use our club boats. If they wish to continue sailing, they will be asked to purchase their own boat after a maximum of 1 year.

When you first start you don’t need to break the bank. All you need is good swimwear, a buoyancyt designed for sailing and any closed shoes which can get wet (e.g. crocs or aqua socks). 

Our beginner courses are the SportMalta #onthemove courses. Designed for complete beginners, they teach you the very basics of sailing. During the summer we also run additional beginners sailing courses. 

At Vikings we offer both the racing and social sailing pathway. Whether you are interested in participating in local and international regattas, or simply wish to sail for fun and make new friends then Vikings Sailing Club will make you feel welcome.
