Snettisham Beach Sailing Club

Unique on the North Norfolk coast because it has both an inland lake and the open sea available for dinghy racing and training, Snettisham Beach Sailing Club has a history stretching back as far as 1908 – and is one of the only clubs from that time to still be operating today.
Cash injections of more than £100,000 over recent years have given the family-friendly club new safety boats, storage facilities and a fabulous new clubhouse, which includes additional conservatory space for social events and teaching.  
SBSC has a broad range of members who own a wide variety of boats, including catamarans, monohulls, single and double handed boats plus windsurfers, kitesurfers and kayakers. Its season extends from April to the end of October with scheduled racing every weekend and on Bank Holidays, with additional races and social sailing on Friday evenings as the tides allow.  The junior fleet enjoys its own programme of racing on the lake at weekends and a Wednesday Evening Club, plus sea racing for the more competent sailors.
SBSC has a dedicated RYA Recognised Training Centre with RYA British Youth Sailing Recognised Club status.
The clubhouse with large conservatory and deck provides great views over the boat park towards the Wash, which can be enjoyed whilst having a meal or a drink from our kitchen and bar. The evenings are very often blessed with an amazing sunset and on incoming tides the flocks of wading birds regularly produce spectacular displays.
Visitors and new members can expect a warm welcome at a friendly club with plenty of opportunities for all to get involved.
