welcome to Vincentia Sailing Club

Join us for some of the best sailing conditions the South Coast has to offer.

Vincentia Sailing Club is located at Plantation Point on the western shore of beautiful Jervis Bay, only two hours south of Sydney. Members enjoy sailing on a spectacular, uncrowded waterway with world-class conditions.

Our predominant breezes include the iconic North-Easterly sea breeze, known traditionally in Dhurga by the Wodi-Wandandian people of the Yuin Nation as Baliya. The refreshing South-Easterly, Miringama, is also common through summer and winter and often brings a much-needed cool change. And when the relentless and sometimes unforgiving west wind, Gurugama, arrives, it will certainly keep you on your toes.

Whatever the breeze, Jervis Bay provides outstanding conditions for getting out on the water.

New members and visitors are always welcome, so come and check us out.

Racing is held most Sundays from September through to April. Check our current calendar for all the details.

Our fleet includes Hobie Cats: Waves, Dragoons, 14s, 16s & 18s, F18s, Nacras, and more, but all classes of off-the-beach catamaran are welcome.

We look forward to seeing you on the beach and out on the bay.
