SOCA Sailing is an active club with members from Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Essex and surrounding areas. We also have members from Norfolk and Hampshire. Our members range from beginners to round-the-world sailors, with a number being boat owners.
SOCA is a RYA affiliated Sailing Club.
We meet in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. Our members mainly sail the East Coast (Essex and Suffolk) and the South Coast (Hampshire), however some sail in France, Spain and other foreign locations .
We welcome new members: take a look at the programme of events we hold and why not join us at one of our monthly meetings? Your first two visits are free to attend as a visitor.

NEXT MEETING :-
Thursday 13th June at 7:30pm (TBC)
As is usual in the sailing season many members were away sailing taking advantage of the good weather. Therefore it is likely we will hold an informal drinks and chat at the RNA in Welwyn Garden City.
