The Comox Bay Sailing Association (CBSA) runs a sailing school and manages sailing programs for all ages out of Comox. They offer structured instruction through their CBSA Sailing School, with separate programs for kids, teens, and adults at different skill levels. Beyond lessons, they operate a sailing team for more competitive sailors and maintain a fleet that includes dinghies, keelboats, kayaks, and VX One boats, giving members options depending on what kind of sailing they’re interested in.

Membership comes with access to the club’s resources, including the various boats and equipment, as well as member-specific benefits. You can apply for membership online, and they have both new member applications and renewal options for returning members. The association also lists employment opportunities from time to time, suggesting they hire seasonal instructors or support staff, and there’s a volunteer executive structure for people who want to be more involved in running the organization.

CBSA is based in Comox and operates on Comox Bay, taking advantage of the local sailing conditions. Whether you’re a complete beginner looking to learn the basics, a teenager interested in joining a sailing team, or an experienced sailor wanting access to boats and a community of other sailors, CBSA offers structured programs and membership options.
