Sailing
Sailing offers an exciting way for students to build teamwork and problem-solving skills in a dynamic and engaging environment. Participants will learn boat safety, rigging, and basic sailing skills while exploring the coastal environment. On-water activities provide hands-on practice with steering, controlling sails, and working collaboratively in small teams.
Programs can be tailored to include STEM-focused lessons aligned with school curriculum, covering topics like wind, buoyancy, marine wildlife, water quality, sail area and perimeter, and sustainability. Participants will gain an understanding of ocean sailing conditions and a foundation in water safety and environmental stewardship.
Students will sail in small dinghies with 2-3 participants per boat, learning essential skills such as knot-tying (Figure-8, Bowline, Reef Knots), proper use of a PFD, cold-water safety practices, and effective teamwork to control and steer a sailboat. Most importantly, they’ll have fun on the water while developing confidence and new skills!
Canoeing
Our Canoe programs offer an unforgettable experience on the water, combining adventure, education, and teamwork. Available in both half-day and full-day formats, these sessions are designed to accommodate all skill levels, from beginners to more experienced paddlers. Participants will learn essential canoeing techniques, water safety, and environmental stewardship while exploring local waterways. Led by expert instructors, our programs foster a deeper connection with nature and provide a fun, hands-on way to develop confidence and collaboration skills.
