41. Learn to Sail
Have you ever seen sailboats silhouetted at sunset and thought, “I wish that was me sailing out there?” Ever thought, “I want to do that,” when you saw a boat quietly cruise by under full sail, people laughing in the wind and sun?
So, just do it – learn to sail. When better than during your vacation on an island? The Hilton Head area offers you some fantastic opportunities to learn the ropes of this exciting sport.
Private and group sailing lessons are available for all ages, and special junior sailing schools are held for children ages seven to 16. Friendly USCG-licensed captains will teach the basics or refresh rusty skills. Reservations are required.
The sailboats and catamarans are also available for rent so you can explore beautiful Calibogue Sound on your own.
