The Chautauqua Lake Community Sailing Foundation is a nonprofit sailing program based off Lakewood Beach on Chautauqua Lake. Youth offerings are short recurring clinics rather than a full-day camp: Opti beginner and Pirate/Viking clinics for ages 6-13 who can sail solo ($50-$100 for the season), and a High School Sailing session for teens of all skill levels meeting weekday afternoons 3:30-6pm with an emphasis on weekend regattas. Friday-evening 420 racing and Wednesday community sailing are open to all ages, and private lessons run $45 per hour with a two-hour minimum.
The practical details
We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact Chautauqua Lake Community Sailing Foundation directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.
