Cebu Yacht Club

The Cebu Yacht Club is a society that offers boat rental and sailing tours around the Cebu Strait and the rest of the Philippines. It has a charming marina with restaurants, shops and a stunning view of the water. Enjoy the changing hues of the sky as the sun descends beyond the horizon.

Embark on a 1-day sailing tour of the area or a 1-week course around the Philippines with a captain from the club. Among the many exotic destinations are Carnaza Island and Mahanay Island.

Stroll along the quay and pick out your favorite model from the array of yachts. Walk on the wooden piers for a closer look at the boats. Vessels are available to rent, complete with a team of staff at your disposal.

Relax on the lawn with a picnic and watch the coming and going of the vessels and their staff. The club hosts many activities and events, such as paddle boat competitions and yoga sessions. Bring your kids to attend a workshop on scuba diving or kayaking. Occasional parties are held to celebrate festivities, such as Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Dine at one of the restaurants in the marina serving the Filipino specialties of dried fish, shrimp and other seafood. The complex contains a café, a gym, a dive shop and several eating establishments. Stay the night in the lodgings here with a view of the water. Speak with guides about the yachts and the future of sea travel.

The Cebu Yacht Club is on the northern side of a tiny island off the eastern coast of mainland Cebu. It is beside the Mactan-Cebu Airport and overlooks a busy channel of water between the two islands. See nearby landmarks, such as the Lapu-Lapu City Hall, the Marina Mall and the Virgen de la Regla National Shrine.
