Welcome to the Social Side of CYC
Life at California Yacht Club extends well beyond time on the water. It is shaped by friendship, tradition, and shared moments that bring members together throughout the year. From relaxed, family-friendly gatherings to elegant evenings at the Club, there is always something happening that strengthens our sense of community.
Where Members Come Together
At the heart of the social experience is P130, where members gather to celebrate holiday traditions like the Annual Holiday Party, enjoy special events such as Super Bowl and Oscars viewing parties, and indulge in a robust calendar of food- and wine-focused experiences including wine expos, Rosé All Day, and bourbon tastings. Add in themed brunches, live music, and family favorites like bingo and movie nights, and the Club Calendar offers something for nearly every interest, making it easy to connect, unwind, and feel at home year-round.
Member Clubs & Social Groups
