Hi

I'm new to this forum and looking at relocating to Jeddah over the summer.

I'm sure to have many questions but at the moment this is my main one - are there any sailing clubs or groups in Jeddah? Laser 4.7 racing or social. And any place to learn to sail?

many thanks for any help

Many thanks for your suggestions/tips

I think we will bring a Laser boat with us in the shipping container and then look for others to sail with

Do you have to wear an Abaya on the water?

Thanks - private beach membership sounds good.

Can you recommend one? prices? or websites?

many thanks
