Live the Adventure: Island Hopping in the 1000 Islands and Lake Ontario

Experience a unique sail training experience with an exciting tall ship adventure! Tall Ships Adventure is one of Canada’s top non-profit sail training organizations.  We offer youth ages 12-18 the opportunity to sail aboard tall ships Fair Jeanne and Black Jack.  Stepping aboard as trainees, youth learn to operate the ships alongside the crew, truly becoming crew themselves. They take the helm, learn to chart a course, haul lines, climb aloft to furl sails, and complete activities around the galley and ship maintenance.  They will increase self-confidence and resilience.  Working as a team to overcome real-life challenges. While the primary focus is learning to sail a tall ship, we have cool and interactive activities held online and in-class to learn about navigation, engine room operations, cooking, and more!

Tall Ships Adventures changes lives, builds leadership skills and creates opportunities for young people to develop self-reliance through the medium of sailing.  For more than 30 years, we have been an organization for youth, run by youth. With the right support, determination, practice, and resolve, we believe that young people can achieve the loftiest of goals and the highest of responsibilities, regardless of age. We create opportunities to challenge young people to stretch their  belief in what they can achieve, and overcome.
