Australian Sailing is the national body for the sport of sailing in Australia, from grassroots sailing through to high performance (Olympic) sailing. Australian Sailing is a Federation consisting of eight State and Territory Associations, often referred to as Member Yachting Associations (MYAs). In turn there are more than 360 affiliated Clubs, who between them have approximately 65,000 registered on-water members. As a member of World Sailing, Australian Sailing actively works to influence international sailing policy and regulations.

Discover Sailing offers a range of exciting activities, making it easy for people of all ages and abilities to get into sailing at clubs. Discover Sailing Days are FREE to attend at most local sailing clubs, who look forward to welcoming you and showing you how fun, safe, accessible, and affordable sailing is. Participating at a Discover Sailing Day is a fantastic way to have a great day out with your partner, friends, work colleagues or family at the club and even enjoy a short sail. A Discover Sailing Experience gives you the chance to enjoy a fun three hour sail for a minimal fee, without the technical elements of a course. Clubs offer the perfect platform and infrastructure to get you out on the water and discover sailing. Most clubs have a Discover Sailing Host who welcomes you to the club, answers any questions, and explains the various sailing activities that are available. There are nearly 400 clubs in Australia of different sizes offering the opportunity to participate, volunteer, or become a social member.
