Welcome to BYRA

The home of dinghy and yacht racing on the pristine Pittwater of Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
 

Welcome to Bayview Yacht Racing Association! Or BYRA for short.

We are a sailing and aquatic club located at beautiful Bayview on the southern shores of Pittwater Sydney.

Run entirely by volunteers, we aim to be the most fun, inclusive, and dynamic club on Pittwater, and we pride ourselves on our friendly club vibe and supportive culture. BYRA is more than sport. BYRA is community.

 We organise a range of activities that include:

At BYRA, we cherish our club and its values. We believe in the power of community and always extend a warm welcome to new members.

For more information on joining, please check out our membership options.

The BYRA clubhouse is also available for weddings and special events. For more information, please visit www.byraevents.com.au.

Fancy a chat with a BYRA crew member?!

If you'd like to just swing by BYRA for a face-to-face chat, there are normally regulars around the club on a Sunday from 12. Feel free to chat with anyone rigging in Riddle Reserve.

One common misperception we often hear is that 'sailing is expensive!'. It does not have to be - plenty of our members sail cheap old dinghies. We also have our social & water sports membership available for just $150 for the whole year! 

Yes, the WHOLE YEAR!
