My sons, 15 and 13 are spending two weeks in sailing school at Captiva Island Yacht Club. I cannot say enough good things about this program. It is open to the public and there are several sessions throughout the summer. Our boys are in the beginner session. The kids are there from 8:30-4:00 for ten days. The program has small class sizes, is very well organized, and Lauren, the director of the program stays in close touch- sending photos and emails to let us know how the boys are doing. When the wind dies, they kayak. When it rains, there are classroom activities and instruction. I believe there are even some scholarships available for kids! The photos here were sent to me by Lauren- thank you for helping our boys develop skills they will carry with them for a lifetime!
