Baltic Wharf Sailing Club

Baltic Wharf Sailing Club is a small, friendly, RYA-affiliated sailing club based right in the heart of Bristol. Most Saturdays you can find us racing in the harbour but we also sail for pleasure too, on weekends and during the week, all year round. New members are always welcome - whether you’re a seasoned sailor or are stepping into a boat for the first time, and we try to keep membership costs to a minimum so everyone can enjoy the sport. For beginners we aim to provide a relaxed and supportive environment for anyone who’d like to learn the ropes. We don't offer lessons (these can be obtained from All Aboard, located right next to us) but we do offer the opportunity to go out on the water with someone who knows what they’re doing and get a taste of the sport of dinghy sailing. If you enjoy it then we'd love to see you again! Those with experience are very welcome too. We have club boats available (both single-handed and two-handed) and opportunities to sail with, or race against, other members in boats of various classes. Club boats can be sailed when the Powerboat is available to assist you if necessary. If you already own a boat then we may have some boat storage spaces available too, although there is usually a short waiting list for these and you will need to have been a member for three months before taking a space.
