Yacht clubs in Kyiv: where to spend time or park a boat, jet ski

In Ukraine, the demand for recreation on the water is growing: this includes yachting, jet skiing, and wakesurfing. With the growth in demand, the private “fleet” of boats is also growing, which need to be parked somewhere on the Dnieper. Bimbarent has collected a dozen yacht-clubs that will be of interest not only to owners, but also to residents of Kiev who want to rent or take a photo session.

Let’s start with basic questions that will be useful for shipowners.

What is the best yacht club for mooring your boat?

Choose the closest to your home. It is one thing to spend 15 minutes on the road, another – an hour. And this is one way.

What are the prices for parking in Kyiv?

In the capital of Ukraine, the cost of parking a boat has practically leveled off. The final amount is calculated based on the length of your vessel. The shorter the length, the lower the price. Slot for a small sailing boat will cost about 100 euros per month. The costs of a large motorboat of 50 feet (15 meters) will cost the owner an average of 500 euros per month, including water / electricity.

The calculation formula for a catamaran is different: the length is multiplied by the width and then multiplied by a coefficient 1.1-1.2. That is, parking a catamaran on the Dnieper or in the Black Sea will cost more than a large boat.

What should I pay attention to when searching a yacht club?

On services and amenities that a marina can provide to a tenant (owner of a vessel or jet ski).

In addition to supplying fresh water & electricity to your boat, on the territory of the yacht-club there may be toilets, showers, lockers for changing clothes (relevant for jet ski owners), landscaping of the entire territory using landscaping, the presence of a restaurant, hotel, grocery store, landscaped carparks, a heliport and a common guest area. At the same time, we note once again that the prices for boat parking in Kiev are approximately the same. That is, somewhere you will be given only “light plus water”, somewhere you will receive the full range of services. But, since there are not enough lots everywhere, you agree to any conditions.

And one more important point for boat owners. Since the boat market is still poorly regulated in Ukraine, each repair service works on the principle of “who cares what”. Prices for services are similar, but there is a noticeable difference in the experience of the masters. You must know what to require from a specialist and control the entire process of work.

Riviera Riverside Yacht Club on Levoberezhnaya

It can be considered exemplary. This is one of the most beautiful & most open to visiting boat clubs in Kiev. It is very similar to a European: there is free entry, there is a large open green area with landscape design, there is a restaurant. For owners of jet skis, lockers plus bathrooms are available. The piers have access to electricity and water.

By the way, the Yacht Club Riviera Riverside is a popular place to start or end boat trips.

It is better to book a slot for a jet ski from February-March, for a boat – March-April.
