ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Kelowna Yacht Club is home to a range of spirited racing programs on Okanagan Lake. Throughout the racing season (March to October), we host club races in open and women-only fleets. Our Club is perfectly situated to take advantage of prevailing winds and favourable currents.


At Kelowna Yacht Club, we remain focused on ensuring that the health and safety of our colleagues, members, guests and the community is our number one priority. With that in mind, and in light of the actively changing circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, several changes have been made to our sailing programs. Please follow the links below to find out more information to each program.
