Situated on the banks of Sadgroves Creek, Dinah Beach Cruising Yacht Association (DBCYA) is a unique member-based community club just 2km from Darwin CBD off Tiger Brennan Drive and a short walk from the Frances Bay Mooring Basin and Tipperary Waters Marina. From humble beginnings in 1982, the club now boasts a healthy membership and offers excellent yachting facilities for local and visiting yachts people.
The venue also has great social facilities and thousands come to enjoy the laid-back ambience, listen to live music and enjoy a bite to eat by the sea. DBCYA prides itself on being a rare and rustic no-nonsense venue that provides no gambling facilities, just a great open-air atmosphere to encourage connection with like-minded peers and pals.
Boat chandlery stores are within walking distance of the Club and private arrangements may be made with the many DBCYA members who have professional skills to assist with repairs and maintenance. The Club does not itself offer boat-building, chandlery, repair or maintenance services – the use of our practical facilities is on a DIY basis only.
