et autres souvenirs de voyages...

Welcome to the Ottawa-Outaouais region 
and other memories from trips...

Britannia Yacht Club is located in the west end of Ottawa, at the head of the Deschenes Rapids, providing access to 25 miles of picturesque sailing waters on the Ottawa River. Incorporated in 1887, BYC is one of the oldest yacht clubs in Canada, and with close to 1200 members, one of the largest. The well-protected harbour accommodates 280 keelboats and dry sail facilities are provided for dinghy sailors. As well as our exceptional boating program, BYC also offers active tennis, youth and social programs. The clubhouse features the region's best view of the Ottawa River, fine dining and year round activities. Our monthly newsletter Full and By keeps members informed with news of club activities and articles of general interest. We heartily invite you to become a part of Britannia Yacht Club.
