Cruising and Reciprocals

Burlington Sailing & Boating Club

BS&BC is located on the north shore of Burlington Bay in LaSalle Park. It is a self-help, non profit private club with membership open to those interested in recreational boating. The club offers cruising and racing programs, social activities and an adult-mentored sailing program to promote both safer and better boating. The club has a comprehensive list of social and boating activities for members, guests and visitors from reciprocating clubs. 

Visiting BS&BC

• The club house with lounge, party room, washrooms and showers is a short climb into the beautifully treed LaSalle Park.
• Overnight dockage is available in the LaSalle Park Marina or temporary dockage at the pier. Marina docks can accommodate boats up to 35 feet in length, special arrangements can be made for boats exceeding 35ft.
• A dock attendant is available at the marina most weekends through June, July and August. The attendant can be contacted by VHF radio on channel 68.
• Visitors are requested to stop at the visitors dock (seen immediately on the right upon entering the marina breakwater).
• To reach the marina visiting boats must enter Burlington Bay through the lift bridge across the canal which operates on the hour AND half hour for pleasure craft, 24 hours a day.
• Vessels must be in the canal prior to the bridge opening. Adequate height, for most pleasure craft of 40 feet or less, is when the bridge balance is level with the road surface of the bridge. The bridge operator monitors channel 16 but will ask you to switch and answer on channel 12 of the VHF radio.
• Visitors coming by car will find us by following the QEW Niagara to Northshore Blvd. and heading west along the Burlington Bay north shore to LaSalle Park Road. (Beware of the King Road bend. Northshore Blvd. is a left turn at this point).
• Parking is available either on the pier in designated parking spaces or in the Park at the upper lot. Visitors are warned to park only where permitted.
• A 15 minute walk from the marina will take you to Tim Horton's, Russell Williams family restaurant, a bank, and a few variety stores.
