A WELCOME FROM THE COMMODORE 


It is my pleasure to welcome you and your families to our 2025 season.  

As Commodore, I invite you to embark on a journey of friendship, adventure, and all the joys of boating and sailing.  

Our yacht club, located in Surf City on Long Beach Island, is a vibrant community that celebrates the spirit of sailing and the bonds forged through shared experiences.  Our social calendar is jam packed with fun and creative events. From bands to barbecues to children's activities, there's something for everyone. 

As you explore our website, discover the myriad of activities, events, and resources we offer to make your private club experience exceptional. Whether you seek the adrenaline rush of competitive regattas, the relaxation of leisurely cruises, the bustling waterfront activities for the kids, or simply a serene place to unwind by the water... our club stands ready to fulfill your summertime fun needs.

Our LBI marina is home to power boats and sailing cruisers, but our heritage is built on one-design sailboat racing. Our dry storage is home to Lightnings, Mariners, Catboats, Sunfish, Lasers, 420’s and Opti’s.

Club membership also offers access to weekly one-design bay races as well as regattas.  SCYC has vibrant program for our junior members including a Swim Team, Bay Kids Program for the little ones, as well as our Sailing Program which provides sailing instruction for children ages 7 thru 17. 

Come and join us this summer on Long Beach Island alongside the Barnegat Bay to have fun with friends and make memories that will last a lifetime!
