Broadreach

Broadreach is another of the top teen sailing camps that offer incredible Caribbean sailing adventures. Founded in 1993, Broadreach offers teen summer programs to learn actively, build skills, and explore. The students are divided into small groups and given charge of a 40 or 50-foot catamaran.

A crew of boys or girls of the same age rotate through a roaster of onboard responsibilities working independently and as a team to keep their boat moving. Students learn to sail from each other as well as from instructors. The entire experience encourages teamwork, inclusivity, relationship building, responsibility, and growth while sailing.

Its suitable for novice or advanced sailors — Broadreach offers both advanced and beginner level camps. Although sailing and diving are a core part of their programs, kids can also enjoy other fun activities. Students learn to do all kinds of small boat handling, skiing, surfing, wakeboarding, kayak expeditions, community service, and get advanced certifications. Since living aboard is a lot different than land life, Broadreach prepares the students for boat life aspects beforehand.

There are three adventure programs for middle school students and three advanced programs for high school students. After learning how to helm a boat in the first phase, students then focus on island exploration and decide where to go in the second and third phases.
