General Information

By the generosity of LLSC members who are also ABC members, windsurfing regattas and other special events are held here. There is a nice wide sandy beach for the launch as well as a camping area. The club house is capable of hosting cooked meals and social events. If joining a full sailing club interests you, the LLSC is highly recommended.

Note: Members only unless is there is a windsurfing regatta or other special event.
