Washington Sailing Marina Summer Sailing Camps
Special Interest: 2025 marks the 68th year of Summer Sailing Camp in the DC area. We are a day camp that teaches youth to sail on small boats. We have camps for total beginners through advanced programs. Sailing teaches so much more than just sailing- sailing is inherently STEM. Youth learn to work as a team, communicate, use wind forces, preserve and make decisions. Sailing Camp is hands-on- outside good “ole” summer camp fun.
