Welcome to Weymouth Sailing Club

Set in one of the best sailing areas in the world, the renowned Weymouth Bay is home of the National Sailing Academy and host of the 2012 Olympics. Enjoy social events throughout the year in our restaurant, bar and open deck area overlooking Weymouth Harbour within the beautiful and historic setting of the Jurassic Coast.

Weymouth Sailing Club is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (Charity No. 1178619).  The objective of the CIO is to promote and facilitate community participation in healthy recreation by providing facilities for sailing to those resident in the local and greater Weymouth area and surrounding regions.  The club is based on members volunteering to run the club and facilities.  From dinghy and IRC keelboat racing to flotilla cruising and training, Weymouth Sailing Club offers a great inclusive experience for all.

Everyone is welcome to join as a member from individuals through to family memberships.
