Club Membership & Subscriptions
The North Wales Cruising Club was founded in 1928 for yachtsmen who enjoyed the pleasures
of sailing to the beautiful anchorages and marinas of Anglesey and the Irish Sea, as opposed to
racing, and is one of the most active Clubs in the North Wales region. Our fleet consists of
around 130 vessels, from small to large, and includes both yachts and motor cruisers. Sailing
events are arranged on a regular basis, including weekend trips to the Menai Straits and around
Anglesey, and longer ones which take advantage of the extensive sailing area to the Isle of
Man, Ireland and the west coast of Scotland.
We welcome visitors to our premises, conveniently located near the town quay, inside the Conwy Town walls and just behind the “Liverpool Arms” public house. The Club premises are open
to members from 09:00-23:00 (7 days per week for access to showers etc.) and to visitors
during bar opening hours (see below). The code for the front door is available to members only.
The ground floor has a comfortable lounge bar, gents toilets with shower and also a washing
machine and tumble drier. On the first floor there is the chart room, with television and video
player, and a pleasant ladies powder room with a shower and power for hairdryers etc.
Children under 14 years of age are welcome at all times but are requested to use the chart
room after 20:00. Dogs are also welcome before 18:00 but only if on a lead.
Club Burgees can be purchased from the Club during bar hours. If you would like to become a
member of the Club then please contact the Club for an application form. Return completed
