We are a small club of very enthusiastic sailors of all ages. Learners, O'PEN BIC, Laser and Windsurfers Sailors are all welcome. Mission
In 2007 a group of local residents, businesses and sports people developed a plan to open a sailing facility using an old council owned sailing club building which needed refurbishment. A core committee of three loaned th

eir own funds and applied to Gold Coast City Council to lease the facility as the Paradise Point Sailing Club Inc. Given the major turnaround that the PPSC has achieved the council has awarded it with a 15 year lease. The committee believe that this facility would promote a healthy and active lifestyle by enabling families and interested groups to participate at an affordable cost. Also that it provided an important local amenity that is accessible to the public interested in sailing and marine safety. The new club opened in October 2008. It would continue to operate as a sail training facility to introduce children and families to experience, learn and compete in the sport of sailing. Company Overview
Paradise Point Sailing Club Inc. is a not for profit organisation whose main goals upon its inception in 2008 was to instigate a program of active participation in sailing for children and families. Its focus is the provision of amenities to promote the sport of sailing by conducting year-round junior and senior education and development. PPSC also operates a public accessible boat licensing and marine safety training facilities. The club operates from leased premises on the Paradise Point Esplanade adjacent the Ephraim Island bridge. The waters in the Broadwater adjacent Paradise Point are shallow protected waters ideal for dingy and skiff sailing. Marine safety designates our area as “smooth to partially smooth”, which offers the PPSC community the opportunity to host state or national events. General Information
