Welcome To Myrtle Beach Sailing School

Discover the passion of sailing while you vacation in the Myrtle Beach area. Our Introduction to Sailing class is perfect for those individuals, couples, or families that have either always wanted to learn to sail or would like to find out if sailing is for them. Hop aboard Island Song, our 32-foot Morgan, cruise through the Intracoastal Waterway and into the Atlantic Ocean.

Myrtle Beach Sailing School offers two Introduction to Sailing lesson opportunities: Half-Day (5 hours) and Full-Day (8 hours). During each you will learn the basics of sailing: hoisting, trimming and easing of the sails, points of sail, simple commands, helmsmanship (steering the boat), and basic boating safety. After this class you should have a good idea if sailing is for you!

Introduction to Sailing lessons include one of our experienced skippers that will answer questions while working with you at your pace for an enjoyable learning experience. Chips, crackers, sodas and bottled waters are provided for each lesson. Lunch is provided for all lessons. One medium-sized cooler with food and beverages is allowed per group.

Myrtle Beach Sailing School is located at Cricket Cove Marina in Little River, SC, about 20-30 minutes north of Myrtle Beach. A quaint fishing village, Little River's proximity to the inlet allows for maximum sailing time being spent on the ocean.
