Where We Sail
Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club
Clontarf is one of the oldest sailing clubs in Ireland being founded in 1875! There are 13 active IDRAs at Clontarf. The sailing area is very convenient to the club with free public parking adjacent. Pints are served in the bar after sailing. There is a lively class of all ages, who are active socially and on the water. The club has a full program of sailing events and offers over 50 races in a season.
Dún Laoghaire

There are approximately 10 active IDRA14's in Dún Laoghaire based in the DMYC and RStGYC. They compete every Tuesday evening and Saturday afternoon in the DBSC races. Sailors from both clubs have dinner at the DMYC after Tuesday evening racing which always makes for a lively après-racing gathering. Throughout the year the southside yacht clubs organise their own regattas which the IDRA's generally also attend together with visiting boats from Clontarf and Sutton.
