Albert Park Yacht Club provides 'learn to sail' opportunities for the young and not so young and is a volunteer organisation which depends on community support.

When the Club approached Bendigo Community Bank Elwood, they were extraordinarily helpful - thank you Bendigo Community Bank Elwood!

Founded in 1871, the Albert Park Yacht Club is the oldest continuing inland yacht club for dinghy class boats in Victoria. Situated on the beautiful Albert Park Lake, the club has helped many people over the years to learn and develop the skills of sailing. The majority progress to enjoy sailing socially; many to be good club level racing sailors; and in quite a number of cases state, national or international champions.

The lake provides an excellent, safe and convenient location to learn to sail.  Try sailing on a Discover Sailing Day. If you decide to go further, the club offers free training to all our members.
