Dell Quay Sailing Club

Dell Quay Sailing Club is a relaxed, friendly and inclusive sailing club, a happy place for all to enjoy in the sheltered waters of Chichester Harbour. Sheltered waters, perfect for learning to sail or just refreshing rusty skills while still enjoyable for the more experienced user of the water.

The club itself is in one of the most picturesque locations to be found in Chichester harbour.The harbours 22 square miles of water offer a variety of destinations and of course easy access to the Solent and the English Channel with all their possible cruising destinations.

While most activities, water based and social, take place at weekends, members have access to the club at all times.The main club building houses a bar, lounge area, galley and changing rooms. There is also a converted grain warehouse providing a race office, office/training room and workshop as well as a spacious shed for storage. There are berthing spaces for a large number of dinghies, Kayacks and all sorts of craft and a number of drying moorings for yachts.

One huge benefit of membership is our discounted RYA courses. We provide training courses on both power and sail to Members through our RYA Training Center.

Dell Quay Sailing Club welcomes all those that enjoy water based activities to this idyllic setting, perfect for starting your exploration of the harbour. We have a floating pontoon which serves as a great launch point, accessible from the club house with it's superb views of the harbour.

The club runs "Fun Friday's" on Friday evenings through the summer season, where there are suitable tides, attracting many existing  members to just mess about on the water enjoy their sport on a summer's evening followed by a meal from the Galley!
