About Us
The Barbados Cruising Club is a family friendly, totally inclusive sailing club located right on the beach at the south end of Carlisle Bay, on Barbados' south coast. We're easy to find, right next door to the Grand Barbados Hotel,
just look for our small fleet of club boats and members' Hobie Cats, or the rather more noticeable 30 foot Super Cat. "Silver Bullet" on the sand.
The core aim of our club is to make marine activities available to everyone on the island. Primarily sailing, but our stunning beach front location, in sheltered Carlisle Bay is perfect for swimmers, snorkellers, kayakers or for those who just want a lazy day on the golden sands.
We deliberately keep our membership rates as low as possible. We want you to come join us and become a part of our club. We welcome novices and seasoned sailors alike. If you've never sailed before, it's not a problem. Our experienced yachtsmen are always on the look out for crew. Our Commodore and Captain regularly take their boats out on a Saturday afternoon, and you're welcome to join them to see if you get bitten by the sailing bug. No boat? No worries! We have a small fleet of club dinghies and kayaks that are available for members to use.
Our club is home to Dippers Beach Bar and Restaurant. Recently refurbished and with uninterrupted views of historic Carlisle Bay from the bar and first floor outdoor terrace, there's no better place to relax and watch the evening sunset. If you don't want to get your feet wet, there's a great regular social programme at Dippers.
Commodore Mark, the Cruising Club Committee and the crew of Dippers look forward to welcoming you to The Barbados Cruising Club and of course the joys of sailing in the crystal clear blue waters of the Caribbean.
