Discover the freedom of the open water with our unforgettable introduction to sailing in beautiful Key Largo. This is not just a boat ride; it is your chance to become the captain. Under the expert guidance of a U.S. Coast Guard licensed instructor, you will take the helm of a classic Catalina 22 sailboat. Feel the tiller in your hands and the wind in your sails as you navigate the calm, picturesque waters of Buttonwood Sound. This two-hour, hands-on experience is designed to give you a true taste of the sailing lifestyle, leaving you with skills and memories that last a lifetime. Your journey begins at our Bayside location, where you will learn the essential language of sailing. Master the art of trimming the sails, learn the ropes, and execute fundamental maneuvers like tacking and gybing. You will steer a course, understand the points of sail, and feel the boat respond to your every command. Our American Sailing Association accredited school provides a world-class learning environment on the stunning Florida Bay, ensuring you receive top-notch instruction during your adventure. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to refresh your skills, this Key Largo sailing lesson offers the perfect blend of education and excitement. We believe sailing is an experience best shared, which is why we also accommodate groups, families, and team building events on larger 25-foot and 34-foot Catalina sailboats or a spacious catamaran. Come experience the art of sailing with us in the heart of the Florida Keys.
