Yarmouth weekend rally 2025

Friday 11th to Sunday 13th July

This is a 2 night rally as during the high season Yarmouth specify that club rallies start on Fridays. If you can't make it to Yarmouth on the Friday you can arrive on the Saturday and you will be allocated a berth on a "first come - first served" basis by calling the harbour on VHF Ch 68 as you arrive. You will be berthed where they can fit you in and not necessarily with the main rally group. Also, space for a large group is limited as they have 2 other rallies booked for this weekend. The first 7 boats to arrive on Friday will be berthed together and those arriving later will be allocated a berth on arrival. The berthing crew are very helpful and will guide you in and can even help with a gentle push to get you berthed.

We visit the often very busy harbour of Yarmouth most years and always enjoy this lovely spot. 

Last year we visited the Royal Solent Yacht Club and the food and service were excellent.  We are trying to arrange a repeat visit, on the Saturday 12th at 19:30.  

With HW Portsmouth at 13:02 BST on 11th July this should give you a favourable tide down the Solent towards Yarmouth.  As a 2 night rally you will have a full day on Saturday to enjoy the Western IOW - see below for suggestions. You have the option of extending your stay past the weekend by direct arrangement with the harbour office. Unless you pre book the nights on their website, which is always limited & difficult, this will only be possible once you are in Yarmouth.  However once you are in you should be ok although you may need to move berth.

Things to do in and around Yarmouth include:

Take a walk along the bank of the River Yar to Freshwater Bay.

The Hop On Hop Off bus to the Needles.  This takes you to the Dimbolar Museum (art & photography gallery) at Freshwater and the Needles Battery (free for National Trust members)

Carisbrooke Castle (free to English Heritage members). The bus to Newport (30 minutes) drops you in Carisbrooke village and the Castle is a 10-15 min walk up the hill.

The River Yar walk via the Red Lion

Yarmouth Castle (another EH property)
