Founded in
2015, Learn to Sail Inc. of Punta Gorda, FL. is a not-for-profit 501c (3)
organization offering sailing instruction to children and adults. We
believe sailing is an adventure for a lifetime. While learning to sail
children learn life skills that will endure. Sailing challenges and
builds confidence by taking children outdoors, out of their comfort zone, and
into a world of wind and water. They learn to rig and pilot their own
sailboats on beautiful Charlotte Harbor. Learn to Sail’s success is
measured in the competence, discipline, responsibility and leadership skills
that blossom in our students. All of this is also available to adults who
join our rapidly growing adult classes.
Come join us
as a student, parent, volunteer or donor as we sail Charlotte Harbor.
Instruction is by certified US Sailing Instructors backed up by a team of
seasoned volunteers. Safety is taught before sailing starts. We
have a fleet of safety boats that deploy before the first sailboat is
launched. All sailors must pass a swim test before instruction can begin,
life jackets are mandatory, and we always have our eye on the weather.
