The Boat Building Academy in Lyme Regis, Dorset, United Kingdom | Boat Builders

Welcome to The Boat Building Academy, Lyme Regis, United Kingdom. At the Boat Building Academy whether you want a professionally recognised Boat Building qualification, a few days by the sea learning practical skills, or to build your own boat, there's a course for you here in Lyme Regis.

Our Boat Building training courses are ‘hands-on’, taught by experts and vary in length from 1 day to 38 weeks. Based on Lyme Regis’s famous Monmouth beach in Dorset, the academy lies at the heart of the UK’s most breathtaking scenery, the “Jurassic Coast”. This stretch of coastline is designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Our students at The Boat Building Academy come from every profession, and from all over the world. Many will go on to work in the marine industries, but our courses also appeal to those taking a sabbatical from their ‘real' lives or simply escaping the rat race.
