We have designed our lessons and workshops at Windsure to ensure we give the best experience to anyone interested in getting out on the water, from beginners trying the watersport for their first time to returning Vancouverites performing at a more advanced level. When our founder started Windsure in 1977 he chose Jericho Beach for a reason: it’s the ideal spot for learning. Located in a protected bay in West Point Grey, Jericho gets just the right amount of wind for beginners and intermediates. Even more, there is no motorboat launching at Jericho Sailing Centre and so there is no boat traffic, providing you with an opportunity to safely practice in a bay clear of distractions AND easily accessible from the city centre. Scroll down to learn more about the sports we offer and the programs we recommend for beginners.

Maybe you already have the paddleboarding basics, or maybe you’re a regular windsurfer. At Windsure we have programs and opportunities for those at all points in their watersports journey. Designed to help those interested in progressing further with their sport, we have workshops, rentals, and season’s passes available to all. Take a look at our unique workshops offerings or consider a season’s pass for 2023 - whatever you’re looking for, we can help.
