Plimmerton Boating Club is a community boating club at 66 Moana Road in Plimmerton, Porirua, about 25 minutes from Wellington. Its first official meeting was held in 1925, and the club is on the same site it has used for boating since its early years.
The club offers a sailing academy, learn-to-sail courses, yachting regattas and racing series, a fishing competition, and boat launching, cleaning and storage. Membership is open to people who want to launch a boat, and the club's Jetty café is open. There is a bar and restaurant, and the club hosts weddings, corporate events and a Jam Night with live bands. Many members run local businesses, and the club encourages support for them. Our pick in Plimmerton for a sailing club with a view of the sunset.
