What’s  next.

Each week you’ll receive an email about Long Beach Yacht Club and choose an experience that guides your immersion into our way of life. You can always return to this page at any time for information regarding your new membership!

We are known for our signature sailing regatta - Congressional Cup - yet we were founded in order to host a powerboat race.

The repeated use of a red star in our burgee is a wink to LBYC member Eddie Fink, who won the Star Class World title in 1932.

Star Boats were an Olympic class sailboat, and the win was key to Long Beach's fleet to be sponsors in the 1932 elimination rounds for the Olympics. (Gilbert Gray of New Orleans ended up representing Long Beach).

The palm trees in the club's parking lot were all planted over one weekend by LBYC volunteers. The trees arrived from a farm in Palm Springs in two pickup trucks, and individual members sponsored the tree purchase - $25 apiece!

The lava rocks in the general manager’s office, the library, and the exterior round-about all came over on one vessel for the club's tiki architecture.

The LBYC pool is 25 yards and heated year-round.

Our race committee boat is named after our first commodore: Loynes.

The clubhouse was designed by Montierth and Stickland - well known mid century modern trailblazers. The building blends South Sea Island treatments with contemporary design glass walls.

Montierth and Stickland also designed the marine bazaar and the marina restrooms.

Our first clubhouse was donated to the Sea Scouts - a long-term relationship between the Scouts and the club that has continued.

Alamitos Bay Yacht Club Summer Sailing Camp

Alamitos Bay Yacht Club offers a summer sailing camp for ages 8-18. Participants learn to rig their own sailboat, sail on their own, and eventually participate in a race. They also learn how weather, wind, and sailboats work.

On days with no wind, there will be beach activities like capture the flag and paddle boarding for the kids to socialize with their new friends.

Sailors will learn to sail in Alamitos Bay in “Sail Cubes,” a plastic version of the Optimist.

We are excited to announce that the registration for the 2024 Newport Yacht Club Marine Adventure Camp is OPEN!  Check this website for any updates.

In 2015, Newport Yacht Club (NYC) launched its first ever Marine Adventure Camp and it’s been a huge success, growing every year.  The mission of the Camp is to provide access to sailing and marine education for youths ages 8-16 with any skill level or sailing experience. The focus of the program is fun and of course, safety with the aim to be an alternative to the many racing focused programs on Narragansett Bay. Being located in Newport, NYC is in a unique position of having access to some of the best sailing resources in the world to support our mission of providing quality nautical and sailing instruction for the youth of Newport and the surrounding area.

Once again our Marine Adventure Camp will be offered over four(4)  2-week full day sessions  a with a combination of activities unique to meet our mission.

• Exposure to beginner marine navigation skills – charts, weather, docking, anchoring
• A focus on Marine Education – conservation, local geography, and sustainability
• For Intermediate and Advanced Sailors, including returning MAC Campers, we will be breaking the groups into different levels throughout the camp to differentiate learning and continue to grow their skills
