Marakura Yacht Club

A family based club with a strong youth section. With kids in a variety of classes from Optis and P's to Starlings and Lasers. There is also a well supported sector of Trailer sailors within the club.

Lake Te Anau is our playground and with a shoreline of over 500km making it the second largest lake in New Zealand, it offers up a huge area for overnight cruising with plenty of safe anchorages.

The yacht club sits on the very edge of the lake which provides views like no other venue in the area. The building is avaliable to hire for weddings, funerals and community groups. if you wish to enquire about the rates etc please direct your enquires to publicity@marakura.org

We offer a comprehensive learn to sail programme for all ages, monday nights are our regular training nights but will do other days or evenings for adults to fit in with work schedules as required.
