WATERFRONT
The Chequessett Club’s robust waterfront program stretches all the way back to the club’s earliest days in 1929. Throughout the years large fleets of sailboats competed in club regattas. Prize-winning fish have been landed from the waters just beyond our pristine, white sand beach. Generations of visitors continue to launch their water-based recreation from the Chequessett Club’s private beach-front facilities.
Anyone and everyone can come to the Chequesett Club and rent sailboats, stand-up paddle boards or kayaks. Our CPR, First Aid and state boating safety certified staff can provide training and guidance in the operation of all club rental equipment. Take a lesson or rent a boat. Your next nautical adventure awaits at the Chequessett Club’s gorgeous waterfront facility. Parking is always free in two lots adjacent to the street-level clubhouse. Walk down the driveway to the sand and visit us
