Yacht Club History
Established in 1932, the Shediac Bay Yacht Club began with a small group of dedicated mariners who shared a passion for the sea and a vision for a community-centered yachting home.
And from its modest beginnings, the club has grown into a premier destination for boating enthusiast in eastern Canada, and is an integral part of the Shediac community
