Anchorage Restaurant @ Point Yacht Club
Durban
At a glance
Anchorage Restaurant is a daytime café-style dining venue at the Point Yacht Club on Durban’s waterfront. Set within the club’s Bay Site clubhouse at the Yacht Mole, the restaurant looks out across the marina and carries a clear waterside character. The setting connects the dining experience with the activity of a long-established sailing and water sports club, while the café format keeps the restaurant suited to relaxed daytime meals.
The menu is presented as café-style dining rather than a formal restaurant experience, making Anchorage a natural choice for breakfast, a light meal or lunch during the club’s daytime trading period. The restaurant’s position beside the yacht mole gives it a maritime atmosphere, with boats, harbour activity and club facilities forming part of the surrounding setting. It offers a change from city-centre dining without moving far from Durban’s central waterfront.
Anchorage forms part of the Point Yacht Club’s wider Bay Site venue, which supports sailing, keelboat racing, dinghy and Hobie Cat activities, powerboating, paddling and offshore cruising. That context gives the restaurant a practical, club-based identity. Diners may include club members, visiting water sports participants and guests looking for a casual meal near the marina. The restaurant also provides a convenient meeting point before or after time around the water, although its appeal remains centred on café dining rather than a full-service evening restaurant.
The restaurant operates during the day from Tuesday to Sunday and is closed on Mondays. Its daytime schedule makes it more appropriate for morning and midday visits than for dinner. The Point Yacht Club also has Charlie’s Bar elsewhere on the club site, with deck seating and views over the yacht mole, but Anchorage should be regarded as a separate dining option within the Bay Site clubhouse.
Anchorage Restaurant suits diners who value a relaxed café setting, marina outlooks and a connection to Durban’s boating community. It is also a useful option for club members and guests spending time at the Point Yacht Club’s facilities. The waterfront location, straightforward daytime format and maritime surroundings define the restaurant’s character.
