About

Our Story: Douglas Sailing Club, Port Douglas

A Family-Friendly Community on Four Mile Beach

Douglas Sailing Club isn't just about boats and water; it's about community, adventure, and the sheer joy of sailing in one of the world's most stunning locations. Established on the pristine shores of Four Mile Beach, Solander Blvd , our club has grown into a vibrant hub where families and individuals alike come together to share their love for the sea.

Our Philosophy: We believe sailing should be accessible, enjoyable, and enriching for everyone. From the gentle lapping of waves against a small dinghy to the exhilarating speed of a catamaran, we celebrate every aspect of this incredible sport. Our focus is on creating a supportive and friendly environment where skills are honed, friendships are forged, and memories are made.

What Makes Us Unique:

  • The Perfect Setting: Imagine sailing under clear blue skies, with gentle breezes guiding you across sparkling waters – that's a typical day at our club on Four Mile Beach. It's truly a sailor's paradise.
  • More Than Just Sailing Days: While our main sailing days on the last weekend of each month are packed with action (rigging, launching, handling, sailing, BBQ lunch, and racing/workshops), we also gather on the first Saturday and the last Sunday monthly for more informal sailing and social connection.
  • A Fleet for Every Passion: Our members navigate everything from zippy small dinghies to impressive catamarans, including popular Hobie and Nacra models (4.5m, 5m, 5.8m). The rumour of a majestic Nacra 36 making appearances adds to the excitement!
  • Your Boat is Welcome: New members are always encouraged to bring their own vessels, and we offer dedicated, secure storage facilities.
