We have designed summer camp programs with a commitment to safety of campers and families. These week-long, full-day, camps run each week from the beginning of June through early August and provide youth ages 5-17 with a sailing experience that will increase confidence, teamwork, independence and camaraderie. Not to mention they’re also a ton of fun!

Explore Summer Camps

We have a limited variety of Adult, Family, and Women-Only sailing classes. These evening events include various classes and clinics specific to each of our locations. Evening classes range from a 3-hour one evening introductory clinic to a month-long series for building on fundamental skills. Space and course availability is limited.

Sailing — the wind in your face, the fresh air, the motion of the boat — is a wonderful sport. It can be relaxing and tranquil or exciting and adrenaline-pumping.

Our Adaptive Sailing Program utilizes specialized equipment to meet the needs of those who may have diverse physical or cognitive abilities. Weekly Free Adaptive Clinics for the whole family or adaptive group partnerships are what drive this program and allows us to share sailing with all.

Our diversity-building Community Partnership Program works with youth-serving organizations to provide an introduction to sailing in a familiar group atmosphere. This program utilizes larger, very stable keelboats, so participants can sail with instructors and volunteers to optimize the group’s experience. The goal of this program is to introduce groups of new sailors to the sport who might then be interested in joining summer camp through our scholarship program.
