Salcombe Yacht Club

Salcombe is located at the southern tip of Devon. The large sheltered estuary is very popular with dinghy sailors and holiday makers. Salcombe is used by yachts as a base for cruising the south west coastline and as a point of departure for the Channel Islands and France.

Salcombe Yacht Club organises regular dinghy racing, cadet sailing, cruiser races and rallies. Merlin Rocket Week (100 boats entered  - the maximum allowed - with a waiting list in 2009) and SYC Regatta Week (over 250 boats in 2009) take place in July and August. A social programme offers activities throughout the year.

The Club House offers a grandstand view of the harbour from its terrace.  Showers are available for visiting yachtsmen. There is a well stocked bar and hot and cold food is offered at most lunchtimes and evenings. The Club House has rooms that can be booked for private functions and has a wireless internet connection.
