Events At BYC

BYC is an active and popular yacht club in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. 

We offer a variety of weekly, monthly and seasonal events.  We also offer catering services and room rentals for you own private events.

The BYC facilities primarily consist of a well-maintained two story building.

The first floor consists of the “Regatta Room”, which is a large meeting/dining area with a full bar area and outside deck for member events. This first floor area and deck are perfect if you need a special venue for a wedding reception or other special occasions.

Upstairs is the “Norton Lounge” bar, dancing and dining area, also accompanied by front and back vista decks. Both levels have beautiful views of the Benicia Marina, Carquinez Strait and Mt. Diablo.
