Aubin, approximately three miles from the town of St Helier and has a
panoramic view of the entire bay, with the ever changing contrasts of
sand, sea and rock offered by the tides, with differences in height of
tide of up to 12 metres. The Jersey Headquarters has approximately 1200 members and welcomes
visiting yachtsmen from any recognised yacht club. The club bar is open from 11.30 hours to 14.00 hours and from 17.30 hours
to 23.00 hours daily, with catering available every day except Monday. Formed in 1862, the club is one of the oldest Royal Clubs in existence and
has offered a welcome to many interesting people over the years. An extensive sailing programme is presented annually with visiting
yachtsmen being welcome to enter any of the events. St Aubin is a very ancient and interesting town with much to offer the
visitor. Yachts of moderate draught may enter the harbour and lie
alongside the Northern harbour wall or lie on the drying sands between the
harbour and Fort. The pierhead is approximately 7m above chart datum.
Fuel, water and electricity are available together with boat repair yards
and a drying grid for essential repairs. There is a supermarket,
newsagent and garage close by. |
