About Us

Welcoming Locals Since 1932

At Gosford Sailing Club, we’ve been part of the Central Coast community since 1932—bringing people together through sailing, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere.


With a stunning location right on Brisbane Water, we offer something for everyone—from sailing courses and live music to family-friendly dining and unforgettable events. Our mission is to create a space where locals and visitors feel at home, whether they’re joining a regatta or relaxing with a glass of wine at sunset.


We’re proud to be a club where generations come together, supported by friendly staff and recognised with awards year after year. Our values are centred on community, inclusivity, and genuine hospitality.


Whether you're here for a special occasion or a casual afternoon at the bistro, you’ll find great food, waterfront views, and service that always goes the extra mile. This is more than a club—it’s a place to belong.

Gosford Sailing Club's Golf Section

Social Golf Section

The golf section was Established on 3rd May 1977 and is for any level of golfer for men and women.


We play most of our games on a fortnightly basis at Gosford Golf Course, and have away games at Wyong, Toukley, Toronto & Belmont throughout the year.

 

All Games are played early Sunday morning, and when played at Gosford we go back to the Sailing club for a BBQ lunch and presentation.

 

Each year we have a weekend away, in October. This year it is in Nelson Bay, where we are playing at Murree, Horizons and Nelson Bay.
