This is the world’s oldest yacht club. In 1720, William O’Brien, Lord Inchiquin, got together with five friends and created The Water Club of the Harbour of Cork. Today the Club is one of the world’s best with facilities including marina berths, a club house with bars and a restaurant, a club office and showers. The Club hosts national and international sailing events throughout the summer and every two years its friendly regatta attracts yachtsmen and spectators from around the world.
