| Tralee Sailing Club (TSC) was formed at Fenit in 1956 by a group of local enthusiasts. From rudimentary beginnings the club has grown and now boasts a vibrant and expanding membership together with clubhouse and marina facilities.
A purpose built sailing school has been completed in time for the 2005 season giving the sailing school facilities which are second to none.
The setting of the Club house sitting perched high on Tralee Bay near Fenit Harbour provides panoramic views from Blennerville Windmill over Tralee Bay to the Marahees and westward to Bandon Point. It is the combination of this spectacular backdrop together with the protected inshore waters of Tralee Bay which provides a tremendous venue for competitive sailing events such as National championships and W.I.O.R.A. To the seaward of Tralee Bay more vigorous conditions prevail - south to Dingle and West Cork and north to the Shannon Estuary and Galway.
