Blundellsands Sailing Club

Blundellsands Sailing Club is located in the North West of England, specifically in Hightown on the banks of the River Alt, with a breath-taking view of Liverpool Bay. The club boasts a comfortable and sociable clubhouse, a boat yard with a slipway, and moorings along the river.

The club is uniquely privileged to hold the lease for the tidal section of the River Alt. This river, once one of the most polluted in England, has seen remarkable environmental improvements, now supporting fish life. The estuary mud, salt marshes, and reed beds in the area provide a habitat for a diverse range of bird species.

The club's longstanding presence and its reputation as a considerate and responsible organization have been instrumental in ensuring that sailing can continue in this ecologically sensitive environment. Members actively uphold their commitment to environmental preservation by refraining from polluting the river and minimizing disruption to the wildlife in and around the River Alt.
