Carrickfergus Sailing Club is a sailing club in Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland on the north shore of Belfast Lough. The club was founded in 1866. The clubhouse moved from the building on stilts beside Carrickfergus Harbour to its current location beside Carrickfergus Marina in 1984. It is one of several clubs that form the Belfast Lough Yachting Conference.

In June 2012, the clubhouse was destroyed by a fire thought to have been caused by an electrical fault.^[1] A new clubhouse was opened in July 2014.^[2]
