The Toronto Islands, apart from being close by, are endlessly fascinating. That they even exist—a natural setting with one of the best views of the Toronto skyline—is fantastic in and of itself. The Royal Canadian Yacht Club, one of the premiere, oldest, and most traditional clubs of its kind in the country, is a jewel in the crown. Just going there—setting out by ferry each day of a camp session—is, quite rightly, for many kids part of the thrill. To engage within the club environment just continues a theme. It's a unique, stellar opportunity to work with others improving skills, indulging passions, and engaging people of like interest, taste, and outlook. For the right child, each day of a camp session at the RCYC is full of pinch-me moments: great instruction, great views, and lasting memories.
All RCYC Junior Club staff are former sailors and Sail Canada-certified instructors, many of whom were once Junior Club participants themselves. They bring the history of teaching to the program they were taught. Our Head Instructor thoughtfully pairs staff with groups to foster a fun and engaging learning environment. Meanwhile, our Tennis Pro, a certified former player, brings expertise and a passion for teaching the fundamentals of the game.

More details about property: Our Island Facility The RCYC made the move to the Toronto Islands in 1881 at a time when the City was converting the Islands from basic wilderness to recreational use. At that time, only two acres of our land was above water year round. The rest suffered from flooding in the spring. Over the years, the Club built sea walls, dredged the lagoons and increased the height of the land. Today, we are one of the largest yacht clubs in the world. At the Island, we have some 26 acres of land, Junior Club building, tennis courts, a swimming pool, boat maintenance sheds, slips for 300+ yachts and dozens of dry sail spots for dinghies and smaller keelboats.
