About the Experience
The day begins with a scenic coastal sail, during which your instructor captain introduces sailing concepts in a simple, interactive way—inviting guests of all ages to participate as much or as little as they’d like. Upon arriving at a calm, protected anchorage, families can take part in setting the anchor, learning how sailors choose safe spots and prepare for a day at rest.
Once anchored, the focus shifts to fun and togetherness. Lounge and enjoy lunch onboard, watch for dolphins, or continue asking questions about the boat and the sea. Instruction is relaxed and conversational, designed to spark curiosity without interrupting the joy of being on the water.
