Santa Monica Windjammers Yacht Club · Private
Santa Monica Windjammers Yacht Club in Marina del Rey runs a junior sailing program that includes a summer sail camp offered on a weekly basis, so families can fit sailing around vacations and other camps. Classes are graded from First Timers through Advanced Intermediate and Advanced, with the youngest first-time sailors (ages 7 and 8) placed in smaller classes for extra time on the water, and a Second Week class for the youngest sailors. The program is open to the general community rather than club members only, though families who do not belong to SMWYC must buy a Junior Program Membership for the calendar year.

★★★★★Alexander JokinskyGreat time performing as a DJ for a 90s-themed 40th birthday party at the Santa Monica Windjammers Yacht Club, and overall it was an amazing experience. The event had a fun and nostalgic vibe, and the crowd was fully engaged, enjoying the throwback music and high-energy atmosphere throughout the night. The space worked really well for a private celebration with family, friends, and coworkers. One of the highlights of this venue is its location right by the ocean, with a cool breeze that adds to the overall ambiance and makes the experience even more enjoyable. Santa Monica Windjammers Yacht Club is a great spot for private parties, birthday celebrations, and group events in Santa Monica, especially if you’re looking for a relaxed setting with a unique coastal vibe. Events like this show how the right theme, music, and venue atmosphere can come together to create a memorable celebration.
★★★★★Mariah MendezI liked the fact it was quiet, plenty of parking lot for you to park, I went at night time and it was perfect for me. The only thing I can say bad about this place is the fact that 100 birds pooped in my car lol
★★★★★James MaGreat place to hangout or have a party or have a group meeting or have a reception. Menu items are reasonably priced and the fish and chips was good.
★★★★★Mike Webb Jr.I will be doing another review regarding this yacht club soon. All of my experiences prior to the year 2020 have been stellar. What an incredible yacht club I was a member of back then. Same staff is there and they always go as above and beyond to make everyone feel welcomed.
★★★★Jeremy LYou can have a very nice view of Marina del Rey at the patio at Santa Monica Windjammer Yacht Club. The monthly membership fee is at $99.00. Approximately 5,000 boats are parked there per Wiki.
