The Hostellers Sailing Club offers day sailing and dinghy cruising during the summer and country walking during the winter. The HSC suits all levels of sailing experience including complete beginners. Most members live in London/ Essex/ Southeast England, we also now have a few in Devon. We keep a club owned Wayfarer dinghy on a mooring at Paglesham on the River Roach in Essex.

Youth Hostel at Bradwell on Sea

bradwell hostel

The HSC was at one time based at the Youth Hostel at Bradwell on Sea. Bradwell was an excellent sailing base with the Blackwater and Coln estuaries both within a day's sail. Unfortunately Bradwell Hostel was closed long ago, followed in due course by both Maldon hostel and Colchester hostel. Dear YHA - can we have some more youth hostels along the Essex coast please!!
