Mieco Beach Yacht Club
The crew of the yacht Seal sit on the rail during a Mieco Beach Yacht Club Race.
The Mieco Beach Yacht Club was founded in late 2003 by a group of cruisers and a resort manager for two main reasons: To give the cruisers ‘something to do’ when they’re in RMI, but not visiting the outer atolls, and to attract cruisers to RMI.
Check out the club’s site: www.sailingmarshallislands.com, which has a calendar of events.
Yachties Night Out: The cruisers dine out at a different restaurant each Tuesday evening. The cruisers are a friendly bunch and you are welcome to gatecrash any of the dinners.
Memberships: These cost $20 a year for individuals and $30 for a family (2 cards). Annual renewals for individuals are $15. The card gets you great discounts around town, such as 10 percent off at the Marshall Islands Resort and five percent off at EZ Price Mart. You can contact the club’s membership director at miecobeachyachtclub@gmail.com.
