Welcome to the Newport Beach Sailing School, a proud affiliate of the world-renowned American Sailing Association. We are glad that you discovered us in your search for the best place to learn how to sail! You can feel confident in knowing that our school was awarded “Outstanding Sailing School for 2008” by the American Sailing Association.

Thousands of men and women have become knowledgeable, confident sailors precisely because of their training with American Sailing Association (ASA) sailing schools. Once you earn your ASA certifications, you will join this especially competent group of sailors who have gone on to buy a new boat, buy a used boat, and/or charter sailboats at sailing destinations throughout the world!

The Newport Beach Sailing School is unique in that we specialize in private and semi-private sailing instruction. Our motto is “you do the sailing, with your captain at your side” (and not the other way round)! We are dedicated to providing highly personalized instruction, and the classes are scheduled according to your availability. We train on beautiful, coastal cruising sailboats built in 2005 or later, which means that you are learning on boats with some of the most cutting edge design, electronics, and instrumentation.
