Key Biscayne Yacht Club is an exclusive community haven

A sense of community develops from the institutions that remain decade after decade. Starting in 1955, the Key Biscayne Yacht Club will soon celebrate its 70th birthday. Founded in 1955, to celebrate boating and create a watering hole for those with a passion for Biscayne Bay, it has grown from its original outpost to a newly renovated 40,000-sq.ft. clubhouse.

During the years, generations of families have gathered at the Club for fellowship. It is the only yacht club on the island, and its “water-minded” members take pleasure in sharing their love of sailing, motorboating, fishing and diving.

The private club, with its opulent decor, restaurants and clubhouse, provides a unique family-style venue for people to share time together.

Located on the waterfront at 180 Harbor Drive, the club features a spacious lobby with maritime décor. Raised 14 feet above sea-level, the club features unobstructed water views. With a dining room, clay tennis courts, pool, gift store, lounge, and outside covered veranda, the club offers numerous amenities to its 1,000 or so members.

Only 182 members are “equity members” with the right to vote on club matters. The membership process includes an application process, requiring sponsors (three members) and family photographs.

Membership levels include associate, junior, non-resident, and regular membership. The Legacy and junior membership allow for reduced rates for those ages 21 – 35 years. Regular membership holds a financial equity interest in the club’s property and assets. A regular member must be an associate member for at least two years.

The club’s Board of Governors oversees club operations. Flag members include the Commodore, Vice Commodore, Rear Commodore, treasurer and secretary. The commodore position is held for a one-year period.

“We opened our newly renovated club during the pandemic and members actually felt safe. It is like a home, a local place,” said Commodore Luiz “Lucho” de la Cruz.

de la Cruz, a Key Biscayne resident, has spent his entire 45 years on the island around the Club. He has many childhood memories of his family enjoying time together at the club. Today, he can be found there almost every night.

“My first date with my wife, Gloriosa, was at the yacht club,” said de la Cruz. “My kids were born while we were members and have grown up going to the club. They are both junior members now and I hope for them to become regular members someday.”

With a three-year wait list, initiation fees are due upon entry and there is a special reduced rate for legacy members. Over 120 families are currently on the waitlist, and only three or four families get in per month.

With the number one sailing program in the country for kids, the yacht club offers lessons in which youth learn to sail and compete -- against fellow club members and against other yacht clubs. The KBYC plans to build a sailing center on its premises soon.

The Club holds many sailing regattas around the island, including their famed Southeast Dinghy Race for kids. Offering Hobe Cats on site, the KBYC offers sailors, new or experienced, a perfect venue to learn as Biscayne Bay is protected from open ocean seas.

The club is known for its fantastic member gatherings, themed nights, waterfront dock parties, and fishing tournaments. Many of the parties are put together by the Seabelle -- ladies hand-picked by the Commodore to help with planning.

Three separate dining areas in the KBYC feature an assortment of foods inspired by Latin, Asian and Caribbean flavors.

The Chart Room offers an array of casual to upscale dishes, including a Mahi Mahi sandwich, pizzas, crispy calamari, conch chowder, and crispy duck confit. Food can be enjoyed on the expansive outdoor verandas and featuring sunset views. The Burgee Bar, connected to the Chart Room, is a boater’s paradise, with hardwood floors and burgee flags that create a nautical environment.

The second floor offers“The Commodore’s Lounge and another restaurant with a more sophisticated menu.

Sitting poolside members can enjoy anything from a juicy burger to a fish sandwich or salad at the Gazebo. Wine can be ordered by the glass or bottle and be shared on either one of the upstairs or downstairs Verandas.

Overall, the clubhouse offers a serene sense of community -- a comfortable place where like-minded neighbors and friends feel a sense of camaraderie.

Thank you to all those that joined us for some good times and some seriously good ribs at the 2024 KB Rib Off, our 18th annual event honoring Dr. Bob Kemper and benefiting the Dr. Robert Kemper Award for Professionalism in Medicine !

Saturday, january 27th 2 :00 pm – 9:00 pm key biscayne yacht club.

The Key Biscayne Yacht Club was founded upon the notion of gathering “water-minded” residents in good sport and good fellowship, promoting social activities among members, and encourage common interests in boating. Membership is by invitation only for those who share these interests and would like to join our active community.

The application process begins when a Regular Member requests an electronic application form to sponsor an applicant for any membership category. Applicants must be sponsored by at least three Club Members, two of which must be Regular Members. Both Regular Member sponsors must personally know the applicant for at least one year. A current photograph of the applicant must accompany the application, and if the applicant is married with children photos of them must also be included. The application must be returned within sixty days of the day on which the process began. Associate and Regular Members may only sponsor four applicants per fiscal year, regardless of the membership category. 

Upon receipt of the completed and signed membership application, each applicant’s name and photograph are posted on the Club’s bulletin board for at least twenty-eight days. If there are no objections from the Club membership during the posting period, the applicant’s name is placed on a waitlist for the applicable membership category, in chronological order. When an opening becomes available in that membership category the Membership Committee moves to interview the next applicant on the waitlist. The two Regular Member sponsors will be present at the interview. If the Membership Committee approves the applicant and their respective spouse, the application is then presented to the Board of Governors for consideration and final approval.

Key Biscayne Yacht Club is a Member-owned and controlled Club. Our membership categories are as follows:

• Non-Resident

Holds a financial equity interest in the Club’s real estate, property, facilities, and assets. A Regular Member must be an Associate Member for at least two years. Privileges include the right to vote, hold office, and priority for wet/dry boat storage. (On occasion equity Regular Memberships are available)

Presents an opportunity for applicants between 21 and 29 years of age to join the Club at reduced rates. Legacy membership preference is given to sons and daughters of our current Members. However, parents may not sponsor their children.

Available to non-residents only. The eligibility requirement for this membership category is as follows: part-time residents of Miami-Dade County will not reside in Miami-Dade County for more than 120 days throughout the year.

This is a non-equity membership. Associate Members and their dependents enjoy all social Club privileges afforded to Regular Members.
