Welcome to Famagusta District Sailing Club “Begafigo”

Our club was founded in 2002 to promote sailing in the ideal conditions of the East coast of Cyprus, giving opportunities to experience the thrill and friendship that only sailing can bring. In 2005 was awarded an athletic recognition by Cyprus Sports Organization and in 2006 was honored by the Cyprus Sailing Federation for its contribution in spreading the sport and expanding sailing tournaments in Cyprus. Today the club numbers more than 300 members, a fleet of 65 monohull & multihull dinghies, and 16 sailing yachts berthed in Larnaca Marina. Begafigo runs coastal & offshore sailing academies, a Club Championship, and participates in National Championships in ISAF classes of Optimist, Laser and Open Sea. Our academies are open also to non-members and offer introductory or development sailing courses to beginners, in sailing, seamanship and safety at sea.
