Situated on the North Kent Coast, an area popular with sailors, the Tankerton Bay Sailing Club was formed in 1962. There is a friendly atmosphere, welcoming all ages and all abilities.
We have regular training days as well as racing for dinghies and catamarans.

Membership booming and recognition through the RYA members survey that we are one of the best clubs in the south east

Tankerton Bay’s own RYA Training Centre has been a hive of activity over the summer break.
6 adults and 15 children have come along to our various courses in August.

We have introduced families and individuals to sailing from age 8 to 60 plus, running Stage 1 Youth and Level 1
