About


Founded in 1889, Indian Harbor Yacht Club has a distinguished history of yacht racing and boating. Located in Captain Harbor on western Long Island Sound in Greenwich CT, the club provides members and guests an ideal setting for year-round enjoyment. Whether racer or cruiser, sailor or powerboater, blue water enthusiast or coastal cruiser, Indian Harbor is the perfect family-friendly place to relax, have fun, compete and build friendships.

Guest and transient moorings are available. There are no membership requirements for making a mooring reservation. Moorings include use of the Club Launch.

Due to limited space, the Club's docks are typically not available to visiting non-member yachts. Guest yachts are typically placed on moorings. If you have a restriction or specific need for dockage. Short term dockage for pickup/dropoff, etc. can be made available - hail the Marine Staff on VHF 68. Maximum draft at docks is 6.5ft at MLLW. Potable water and 30 amp, 50 amp and 120V connections are available. Dinghies may be docked on the inside of the East (Junior Sailing) Docks.

Great location. Busy docks on the weekends.

Great facilities, friendly staff, good launch service. The only issue is that if the wind is from the south the anchorage is a bit rolly. The mooring ball feels like it's "in the middle of the ocean." It's reasonably well protected from other wind angles, however.

At $150 the mooring fee is about twice other clubs. Also we were not allowed to use the restaurant.

We were put out on a mooring outside the harbor and far outside the no wake zone. The waves were very high and we bounced around all day long as large powerboats sped by. Otherwise everything was excellent.

Beautiful harbor! Moorings are the only option, but the water is delicious for swimming. Excellent showers WITH provided towels. Excellent dining room overlooking the harbor and sound. Alas, dining is only available to Indian Harbor YC members or members of reciprocal clubs. Worth calling the front desk in advance to confirm if you can eat there.

Marina Response:
Thank you! Glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Always worth checking with the Front Desk. With a prior request, we'll take dinner guests from moorings if possible.

We stayed overnight, Saturday to Sunday, Sept 25 -26, 2021. The restaurant was fully booked, but the front office did not inform me of this when I called. We made do with food delivery, but it would have been helpful to know this in advance. Launch operators were nice, as usual. We had access to the outside bar because we are members of a reciprocal yacht club, so that was nice. If you plan to make a reservation here, ask ahead about their restaurant.

Really great spot. Easy to get to and navigate. Craig on the launch directed me to our guest mooring spot and dropped us off at the dock. We had a terrific lunch with a great view overlooking the harbor with boats passing by. Afterwards we had a pleasant walk into Greenwich. Highly recommend.

Great overnight stay. They had a pre-assigned mooring for us, much further in that one we’d have picked just showing up and there is a great area for kids to hang out away from the main club house. The only criticism was the mooring was fairly rolly in the prevailing NE wind.

Thank you for the feedback. Glad that you enjoyed your stay.

Staff was great, club is very nice, and it is an easy 15-20 walk to to town - but the moorings for guests are way out in the harbor and very rough. We were right on the channel and power boats came zooming by us as the 5 mph wake markers were further in - so they would zip by us at full speed and then slow down (even the police boat!) We were rocked so hard that when we returned from dinner on shore items that stay secure even as we sail were knocked onto the floor. We would probably not return there.

Marina Response:
Thank you for the nice feedback about the Club and staff. Sorry that the wakes and conditions were not a good experience.

Friendly, helpful staff and sparkling-clean facilities. Gorgeous setting. We enjoyed the outdoor bar and then it was an easy, just-over-a-mile walk into town.

The mooring was way out in the waterway and rocking & rolling. We asked for a closer mooring and they said didn’t have a spot closer for a 50’, although we thought there were some spots. If it were not for the water taxi ride to and from our boat to land, they would get zero! Craig was very friendly. Location to town was an easy walk.

Marina Response:
Sorry to hear you had a bad experience here. If you make a special request ahead of time we will always work to honor it. Unfortunately without any prior notice, we could not accommodate a boat of your size on an inner mooring. Glad to hear that the launch service was efficient and friendly.
