There are many benefits to joining a yacht club, aside from simply having a safe space to dock your boat. For one, becoming a member at a yacht club provides great opportunities for the whole family to socialize and make new friends while sharing your love of boats with others. In addition, you’ll have access to a wide variety of amenities- from pools to great restaurants to tennis courts.
5 Benefits of Joining a Yacht Club
We can’t speak for all yacht clubs, but there are certainly a lot of benefits to joining Lighthouse Point Yacht Club.
#1. Safe Space to Store Your Boat
If you don’t have access to a boat dock on your own property, you’ll need a place to store your boat and to take sail from. Yacht clubs offer a safe space to dock your boat, either in a boat slip or via dry storage. In addition, yacht clubs in prime locations offer a great starting point for all of your boating adventures.
#2. Fun Organized Activities
There are a variety of fun activities that are always ongoing at yacht clubs – from holiday parties to tennis tournaments. Finding something to do next weekend will never be an issue if you belong to a yacht club. No matter what time of year it is, there are almost always fun organized activities for both kids and adults going on. As a result, there is something for each member of your family.
#3. Access to Junior Programs
Have kids? Our yacht club grants you access to a plethora of opportunities for children of all ages. In addition, you’ll have access to junior programs, often for free or at a reduced cost.
Our youth programs give parents a chance to enjoy date night again. Little Skippers Childcare is offered Wednesday through Saturday evenings. It starts at 6 PM and is open to all Member children, as well as grandchildren and guests. In addition, we offer day camps during holiday breaks, as well as summer and spring break. Now you have something fun to offer your kids when they get bored over summer break. Plus, it helps them socialize, learn new skills, and build confidence.
#3. Race Under a US Sailing-sanctioned Burgee
Being a member at a yacht club means you have the chance to race for a club while representing your boat.
#4. Access to Luxury Amenities
At Lighthouse Point Yacht Club, we offer access to a number of luxury amenities including a fully stocked gym with personal trainers, lighted tennis courts, a large swimming pool, and more. In addition, you can enjoy world class dining at our on-site restaurant. Our restaurant serves up the highest quality food, focusing on organic vegetables, hormone-free meats, and the freshest seafood on the coast.
We are truly your home away from home. Our goal is to make every member feel like a VIP each and every time they set foot on our pristine premises. As a member of LHPYC, you have access to Yachting Club of America as well as the Fort Lauderdale Country Club.
#5. Make New Friends
We are one big family at LHPYC, with many of our members forming lifelong friendships thanks to the many social engagements offered through our club. Meet other people who enjoy living the South Florida yachting lifestyle. Not only will you make some great new friends, but so will your kids!
