Largs Bay Sailing Club

0

Largs Bay was founded in 1926 and has over 90 years tradition as a family oriented sailing club, which encourages and facilitates competitive sailing events and provides sail training for youth and senior members.

Largs Bay conducts racing on the waters of Gulf St Vincent directly in front of the club.  Boats can be rigged and  launched from a clean, white, sandy beach into shallow waters, which are accessible even in stronger winds.  The beach is accessed via a graded driveway on which boats may be towed by hand or using a motor vehicle.  The club provides towing vehicles to assist with transport and launching of larger trailerable boats and coach and safety boats.  There are large car parks to the north and south of the club and plenty of on-street parking near the club. 

The sailing club is on the foreshore at Largs Bay, approximately 200 metres to the north of the Largs Bay jetty on Lady Gowrie Drive at Largs Bay.  Largs Bay is a north western beach-side suburb of Adelaide approximately 20 km from the city centre.  From the city it is any easy drive from the intersection of North and West Terraces (near the Royal Adelaide Hospital) down the Port Road. There is a regular train and bus services from the city to Largs Bay with a station and bus stop within 500 metres of the club.
