Harness the wind to navigate a dinghy or keelboat across water — sailing combines navigation, teamwork, and physical skill, with lessons available on most lakes, rivers, and coastal harbours around the world.

The Essentials

  • Learn to read wind direction from flags, water ripples, or a telltale before setting off
  • Always wear a properly fitted life jacket, even on calm water and short trips
  • Know the basic points of sail (close-hauled, reach, running) before trying to steer a course
  • Watch for the boom swinging during a tack or jibe, and keep your head low when it moves
  • Check the weather forecast and tell someone your route and expected return time before heading out
