How to get here

Most visitors should follow the brown signs for the harbour from the A299.

Sat nav location

When using sat nav to reach the club do not use the postal address as the destination. The road that the club is on, the Sea Wall, is small lane leading to a deadend with no suitable access to the beach.

Use Whitstable Harbour on Harbour Street as the destination as this provides access to the beach for dropping off boats. The club is 30 metres from the Harbour entrance, or download these directions.

Car parking

The closest car park is Gorrell Tank, 200 metres east of the harbour.

Further information

Please note that all children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian, who must remain on site for the duration of the session.

Please complete and return a parental consent form for all participants under 18 or bring with you on the day. This will be emailed to you following entry.

The training will cost £35 for the day.  

6 Campervans less than 6m can be accomodated from Friday 9th to Sunday 11th for a flat fee of £30 each.  Please go to https://www.wyc.org.uk/sailing-event-entries/ to book.
