    Palm Pavilion on Clearwater Beach

  Come out and enjoy an evening on the beach with Dunedin Boat Club Members. Dinner, music, and a sunset on the beach makes this event one of my personal favorites!
  

  You have many fun ways to get to the event.  You can take the ferry from the Dunedin Marina or you can hop on your boat and cruise over to the Clearwater Beach City Docks. You can even drive your car over. 

  The Clearwater Ferry can be booked and there will be more info regarding the Dunedin Boat Club using the ferry released soon so stay tuned.

  There are free day docks at the Clearwater Beach City Docks near the Clearwater Beach Library and good anchorage just off the day docks in the Mandalay Channel. There are some boat size limits at the day docks so ask around to get those details.

  Please register online by July 28^th. This is very important as we must tell the Palm Pavilion staff how many people will be in our group.  You don’t want to end up sitting at the kiddie table so go ahead and register asap! 

  Cost: You pay for your drinks and dinner.

  This is a DBC Members only event and we are working with the Clearwater Ferry to take Members from the Dunedin Marina to the Palm Pavilion and back to Dunedin.

  We are looking forward to having a ton of fun with our DBC shipmates!
