Lerwick Boating Club
Lerwick Boating Club is a friendly, active club situated at Gremista on the north end of Lerwick Harbour, set against the dramatic backdrop of Shetland's rugged coastline. It's about 2km from Lerwick town centre, so you've got easy access to the island's capital while being right on the water. The club has a strong community feel, running sailing, rowing, and swimming alongside regular social events — so if you want to get stuck in with locals rather than just passing through, this is the spot. Junior and adult sailing programs mean there's something here whether you're just starting out or already know your way around a boat.
