Introduction

Mumbles Yacht Club is located near Swansea in South Wales, UK. We have the following club accreditations:-

Sailing takes place in the safety of Swansea Bay which is situated at the start of the Gower Peninsula; designated by the National Trust as an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Cruiser, dinghy, catamaran and youth sailing/racing takes place every weekend during the Spring, Summer and Autumn, with additional evening sailing during Summer weekdays. We also run a well attended Winter series between October and March with sailing/racing every other weekend.

Having many experienced and highly qualified race/safety officers, as well as a large and keen support team, Mumbles has been a popular choice for World Championships, National Championships and Weekend Regattas.

The club has a team of RYA qualified instructors courses who coach the RYA Youth Sailing Scheme, National Sailing Scheme for adults, Youth Windsurfing Scheme and National Windsurfing Scheme for adults, throughout the year. The Courses range from beginners to more advanced sailing / windsurfing skills. The youth courses have been especially successful with many of the youth sailors being subsequently selected for Regional, Welsh and British Squads.

In the Summer we have frequent BBQs on the roof. It's also a nice place for prize-givings.
