The 2nd Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Sailing Regatta was held at Zhuhai, Guangdong, China during 20- 22 September 2019. The regatta attracted 15 sailing teams from 7 cities, including Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Macao, Foshan, Shenzhen, Zhaoqing and Zhuhai.

The spectacle of a large number of  boats sailing in the Hong Kong – Zhuhai – Macau Bridge area was a visual delight. Large number of spectators gathered around to cheer the 15 sailing teams as they manoeuvred to outpace each other in the competition and the weather gods provided wonderful warm sunshine for the sailors.
