2026 Season Memberships
At Regatta Point, a membership isn’t just about access—it’s about connection. When you join, you unlock the freedom to boat on your terms, the chance to belong to a supportive waterfront community, and the opportunity to bond with friends, family, and fellow water lovers all season long.
Enjoy unlimited access to sailing and kayaking, expert staff support, and a welcoming space to grow your skills or simply unwind. Whether you're launching solo at sunrise or sharing sunset paddles with others, Regatta Point is your home on the water.
Best part? Our memberships work at both locations at Regatta Point State Park in Worcester and Hopkinton State Park in Hopkinton.
Boat. Belong. Bond. It’s more than a tagline—it’s the experience.
