The story

Antigua Yacht Club Mini Dinghy Regatta in Falmouth Harbour

A recurring club-level dinghy regatta at Antigua Yacht Club mixing Optimist and ILCA 4, 6 and 7 fleets on Falmouth Harbour, giving the island's junior and veteran sailors regular competitive racing between bigger annual regattas, with schedules published through the club's own racing calendar throughout the year.

The Antigua Yacht Club Mini Dinghy Regatta is a smaller, more casual counterpart to the club's bigger youth sailing fixtures, run on the waters of Falmouth Harbour and open to a mixed field of the island's dedicated young sailing prospects and seasoned veterans looking for low-key competitive racing.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Unlike the island's headline regattas, the Mini Dinghy Regatta is run repeatedly through the year as an accessible club fixture, mixing junior Optimist sailors with adult ILCA 4, 6 and 7 racers on the same racecourse

02

The mystery stays covered

That blend of ages and experience levels, combined with its casual, club-community feel, makes it a good entry point for visitors curious about small-boat sailing without the scale, crowds or advance planning that Antigua's bigger international regattas usually require
