Hands-On Sailing Lesson
This is the only sailing lesson outside of Key West. You raise sails, take the helm, switch the lee boards, tack, jibe, and ...learn to sail. I often hear people say "I always wanted to learn how to sail". Pair it with a stay at Parmer's Resort. One lesson is $325. Three lessons, just $750.
100% Hands-On Sailing Lesson
We are the only sailing school outside of Key West. Four hours is the perfect amount of time for a sailing lesson. You leave with a booklet, so to better understand wind direction and points of sail. The rest is hands on; you raise sails, take the helm, switch the lee boards, tack, jibe, and … learn to sail. This lesson makes a great gift. We also offer sailing tours and expeditions a la Outward Bound. Gift certificates available.

Itinerary
- Sailing Cruise
- We will hoist the sail and go on our way. Fishing, snorkeling, swimming are all on the table. Whatever you want to do!
- Sailing Lessons
- Here we learn how to understand the wind, and how to use it. We have diagrams for you for wind direction and points of sail. In this 3 hour class, you will learn all there is about; motoring into the wind, anchoring, raising the sail, steering, tacking, and basic navigation. The more adventurous student might want to take the overnight or multi-night sailing expedition. You will depart a novice, and return a seasoned sailor. Our sailboat, Freedom, is a 2003 21' Nimble Bay Hen gaff rigged cat boat with a Yamaha 4hp four stroke outboard.
