Sail Port Stephens is firmly entrenched as a “must do” event on the national sailing calendar, attracting 1,000+ competitors, family members, and industry representatives. Fleet sizes have consistently increased year on year which spurred organisers in 2023 to expand the format from a week-long regatta to a multi-event series with passage racing, offshore windward-leewards, and off-the-beach competition.
Iconic events include the Commodores Cup, Port Stephens Trophy, and NSW Yachting Championships.
Après sailing activities are staged at d’Albora Nelson Bay through the entire event and the Bannisters Cheeky Dog pub for the Off the Beach events.
