ABOUT LA PLAYA YACHT CLUB
Our History
Founded in the early 1930s by a small community of eight families, the La Playa Yacht Club is not only one of the oldest yacht clubs in continuous existence in coastal San Diego, but also maintains one of the oldest community piers.
The specific purpose of the La Playa Yacht Club is to encourage and foster interest in yachting, and to preserve the historical pier located in the Point Loma/La Playa neighborhood of San Diego.
To that end, the Yacht Club is establishing a membership drive, raising funds for the maintenance and improvement of the La Playa pier, while creating a fun, vibrant membership community through events and community participation.
We are continuing to expand the website, so check back for ongoing updates.
Be sure to check out our membership page and join La Playa Yacht Club; read our newsletters; and sign up to attend any of our upcoming events.
