Water Activities: Nantucket Community Sailing Jetties Sailing

Private Lessons for your Tiny Sailors!

About NCS is offering Private Lessons for toddlers ages 2-4 years old!

Toddler Sailing Lessons are for up to two sailors for one hour. The cost of the lesson is $100. During the lesson, your toddler will spend some time on shore learning a few sailing terms and a sailing knot. Your toddler will then have a chance to explore the boat (Opti) on shore. Finally, your toddler will be able to try sailing alongside an instructor in the boat.

The goal of the lesson is to help your toddler develop comfort on the water and begin to build knowledge around sailing. We advise caregivers to remain onshore throughout the duration of the lesson.
