Axe Yacht Club

Axe Yacht Club sits on Harbour Road in Axmouth, Devon, on the River Axe estuary where it opens toward Lyme Bay.

Founded in 1936, the club leases its site — running from the roadway to the beach — from East Devon District Council, and sublets a portion of the yard to the Axe Vale Canoe Club.

The site includes a boatyard, slipway, and a clubhouse with views across Lyme Bay. Vehicular access is controlled by key fob or ANPR barrier, and a 5 mph speed limit applies throughout. The slipway is not generally available to non-members.

The club runs an active programme of dinghy sailing, river racing, and RYA training, with race starts typically held off Coronation Green in Axmouth village.

The finish point for the Axe Vale Canoe Club's annual River Axe Race is also located here at the harbour.
