What To Expect
Your sailing experience is a great choice to introduce yourself to the sailing world in a casual, relaxed setting. This trip requires no prior sailing knowledge or experience. You have the option of participating to the extent you want; take the helm and be "master and commander" or sit back and relax on our foredeck bean bags as we tour Toronto’s harbour and enjoy the awesome cityscape centred around the CN Tower.
On a 3hour sail, we will cruise through the Toronto Island lagoons.
Exiting the harbour through the western channel, our true sailing enthusiasts will enjoy the sail in Humber Bay and Lake Ontario, known for its great winds and light waves. On most weeknights and evenings, you can enjoy watching the sailing races of all the local clubs.
As we return to the harbour we pass through the Eastern Gap, separating the port lands from the Island.
Our final leg along the Toronto, shoreline, will include, our urban beaches of Sugar and HTO Park, waterfront condominium and hotels, and Toronto’s marine fire station.
