Lake Pegasus: Where is it?
The 2025 IOM Oceania Regional Championship will hosted by the New Zealand Radio Yachting Association (NZRYA), in conjunction with the International One Metre International Class Association (IOMICA) and the host club, Pegasus Radio Sailing Club, on Lake Pegasus. Lake Pegasus is located in the newly established Pegasus town, named after the nearby Pegasus Bay and is located approx 25km north of Christchurch on the South Island of New Zealand.
Christchurch International Airport is the closest airport located approx 27km south of Pegasus and is easily accessed by two lane highway (for the majority of the way). Direct flights to Christchurch are available from most Australian capitals flying with Virgin Australia, Qantas, Jetstar & Air New Zealand. Travel from other international locations may require connecting flights through Auckland or an Australian airport (dependent on which direction you are coming from).
Lake Pegasus covers 18 hectares, is 500 metres long and varies between 100 and 200 metres wide providing 3.5 km of foreshore with numerous areas to sail from.
