Land or Sand Yachting in Scotland 2025
Water is not absolutely necessary to sail—when your boat has wheels and a sail you can easily glide on land
Best time: September–November | March–May
People have been developing land yachting sports for centuries, and it has been available in various forms. In Scotland, one may experience its newest form—sand yachting. The sails are set on the three-wheeled vehicles and powered by the wind as your "boat" glides over the land—anyone suffering from a phobia of water will definitely appreciate such an alternative to traditional sailing.
As soon as nature rewards you with a breezy day, gather your friends and visit St. Andrews in Fife and try your hand at this sport. The Blown Away company provides equipment year-round.
