Cruising

Houston Yacht Club offers an exciting program for cruisers, power and sail. And if you don’t have a boat, you can join many of the cruises at land destinations.

We have cruises to many destinations in Galveston Bay as well as up and down the Gulf coast. Cruises typically include parties and shore-side activities. Cruises are carefully organized to assure that you have a safe and enjoyable experience.

The Cruising program often includes seminars on local destinations and weather, radio usage and other topics of interest to cruisers.

LAND CRUISERS – No boat? No problem! You can join the cruise events that have shore-side destinations, thereby enabling you to join the festivities with the boat cruisers. Many of these destinations have hotels and/or RV parks that can accommodate you.

Cruising with HYC is a great way to take your boat out and meet new friends!
