ROTORUA YACHT CLUB

Welcome to the Rotorua Yacht Club

Situated near Ohinemutu on the Lake Rotorua waterfront, you'll find us sailing dinghy yachts and catamarans most Sunday afternoons, during the summer months. We usually rig from 12:30pm, to be on the water by 2pm.

We offer Learn to Sail Youth and Adult Sailing Programmes. Popular learning classes include Optimist, Open Skiff, Laser (4.7, Radial and Standard) and Topaz. Our sheltered lake is superb for experienced sailors and those who are just getting started.

Visit us to find out more.
