About Guelph Community Boating Club

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. 1 sailing school or club and 2 boat hire places within 10 km. The town to stay in is Guelph/Eramosa. Within 5 km we also list 1 kayak spot and 1 mountain bike area.
