Hernando Beach Yacht Club (HBYC), founded in 1978, is a welcoming organization for people who love boating and living near the water. Membership is open to everyone, regardless of boat ownership, and the club currently has about 70 members. It operates as a not-for-profit and holds weekly dinners, as well as monthly and annual events such as the Christmas Boat Parade, Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre, and Blessing of the Fleet, some of which are open to the public. The club offers boat slips for rent and has dining facilities that can accommodate up to 100 people. The staff is known for being helpful and accommodating, especially when hosting special events like birthday parties and celebrations of life. Guests have praised the venue for its beautiful space, nice seating, and outdoor deck overlooking the water. The staff's flexibility and excellent service, including great bartenders, make it a popular choice for hosting gatherings. Limited parking may be a concern for large events, but overall, HBYC is a friendly and versatile spot for both members and visitors.
The staff was wonderful with assisting in our daughters sweet 16 birthday party. We were very pleased with everything from start to finish. Would recommend highly if others need a wonderful place to host a party. Thank you.
