Melbourne Yacht Club

The beginner adult sailing class offered by the Melbourne Yacht Club is amazing! No one in our class had ever sailed before but the mix of classroom instruction and getting 4 days out on the water definitely set us up for success. Brian was our instructor and he was so knowledgeable and patient. You can tell he really likes what he does and he made it an experience like no other. The classroom sessions are used to learn terminology, knots, and techniques to use on the water. The class is only 4 people so when it’s time to sail it’s everyone and the instructor on a 22 ft sailboat doing everything from putting the sails on to getting to practice everything that you learn in the classroom. The class also concludes with the receipt of a book of skills from the US Sailing Association and all of the skills we learned were documented. If you are looking for a unique, fun, challenging experience then this class is for you!

Coach Gonzales is the BEST coach ever!! He is very nice and kid friendly! My kids wished they could spend all summer at sailing camp! Very safe environment!! I would recommend this camp to all families! My kids said that the camp was very easy to learn! I suggest you sign your kids up for 2 Weeks or more! The sailboat on the bottom is drone footage of one of the sailboats! Adventure camp has so much to offer! There is a very fun kayak adventure with plenty of nature to explore! And a luxurious sailboat ride!

An awesome sailing club. Very welcoming to prospective members and a very active sailing program.

Surprisingly great food and dock side attendants. Very fair diesel prices with good referrals for mechanic. Quiet and pleasant, our group felt very safe and the bath house was immaculate. Stop in for a nice stay.

Warm and friendly, this club has lots of activities and events. I love the rum races every two weeks, and the Mermaid Regatta and Marker21 cruises are my favorite events of the year. This clubhouse is very nice. Each person in my family has benefitted by being active here, gaining confidence and experience on the water and making friends. There is always someone around willing to teach you. Being a part of this club is a great way to stay young.
