East Hastings Sea Angling Association and Social Club

And come join us. Whether you're an experienced angler or just starting out, we have something for everyone.

Our club is located in the heart of the Hastings Old Town, a prime spot for fishing enthusiasts. With over 100 years of history, we have become an integral part of the fishing and social community in the area. Our club offers excellent facilities to ensure that anglers have a great experience.

One of our standout features is our fully beach launched boat yard. We have a team of experienced and friendly beach staff who are always ready to assist you in getting your boat afloat and back on shore safely. Alongside the boat yard, we have a range of club boats and can accommodate various sizes, from smaller boats to larger clinkers.

Throughout the year, we host multiple competitions with fantastic prizes and historical trophies up for grabs. Whether you're a boat angler, beach angler, or even a fly fisherman, we welcome all types of anglers, both fresh and saltwater. We also have a well-equipped workshop that caters to your maintenance and upgrade needs. With secure lockers, outboard and freezer storage onsite, you can keep everything you require handy.

In addition to our fishing facilities, we have a fully stocked modern bar in our clubhouse. Enjoy stunning views across the beach, sea, and harbour arm while sipping on your favourite drink. Our comfortable seating areas, inside and outside the building, provide a relaxed atmosphere for members and visitors alike. We also have a separate stage area with additional seating and a dance floor that can be hired for various events, including weddings, birthdays, wakes, and community group meetings.

Hungry after a day of fishing? Our onsite tea bar/ caf offers some of the best food in the old town. Don't miss out on their renowned chicken curry, which has gained a stellar reputation within the community. Keep an eye on our events calendar for their occasional carvery nights, a popular choice that sells out quickly.

As a club, we are deeply involved in the community and host a wide range of social events throughout the year. From live music every weekend to special occasions like Fat Tuesday and May Day weekend, there is always something happening at our club. We are proud to support various community groups including the Winkle Club, Widow and Widowers club, and Jack in the Green.

At the East Hastings Sea Angling Association and Social Club, everyone is welcome. We encourage you to join us and become part of our vibrant and friendly community. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or if your community event or group is in need of a venue or support. We're here to help and ensure that everyone has a great time.
