Boca Ciega Yacht Club

Just a simple sailing club with a community spirit and fun social events. No bar or restaurant just people who enjoy sailing and partying together.

Excellent little sailing club in Gulfport FL. Lots knowledgeable people to help, adult and youth sailing programs, Sea Scouts too

Great place for friends, family, and sailors! Warm people and many shared laughs and experiences ❤️ Sail On with Happiness 😊!

BCYC is jewel. Amazing location just off Boca Ciega Bay with easy access to the Gulf and Tampa Bay. Welcoming, friendly club members who make you feel right at home. A nice club building with a brand new covered patio right on the water. Wet slips in a fine boat basin and dry storage, too, for boat, dingys and such. A fleet of Catalina Capris, Sunfish and Lasers for club members to sail. Lots of cruising, racing, and other fun on the water. Parties and dinners off the water. Sea Scouts. Events with the greater Gulfport and St. Pete community like the St. Pete Boat Show and the Gulfport Christmas Boat Parade... and on and on. The thing that brought my wife and I to the club was the outstanding Sail School which took me from a land lubbber to being able really sail one of those Catalina Capris like a pro. (And it's affordable, too.)

I joined about a year ago, and felt very welcome at BCYC. I wish I could spend more time there. Really good people that have one thing in common, sailing. Very relaxed and casual. People vary from new to sailing, to very experienced. Sailing class was fantastic.
