sailing camps
Nautical summer schools
Sailing camps are summer programs, typically for children and teenagers, that teach sailing skills along with general camp activities.
Campers learn to rig, launch, and navigate small sailboats while spending time on the water.
Most operate on lakes or coastal areas with facilities for both instruction and traditional camp experiences like swimming and campfires: She spent two weeks at sailing camp learning to handle a Sunfish.
