At the Shoalwater Bay Yacht Club, we are passionate about fostering a love for sailing and our maritime heritage. Located in the heart of Pacific County, WA, our mission is to bring the joy of sailing back to Willapa Bay by offering sailing education, youth programs, and community events.
While we share a common passion for sailing, the Shoalwater Bay Sailing Foundation operates as a separate nonprofit organization. The foundation focuses specifically on raising funds through grants and donations to support youth sailing programs and maritime education in our community. Together, we work in harmony to ensure that sailing opportunities flourish for all.
The yacht club serves as a hub for community engagement, offering social events, music nights, and opportunities for members to connect both on and off the water. Join us in keeping the spirit of sailing alive and thriving in our region!
