Whether it’s looking out into the fog rolling over the water, feeling adrenaline flow as the perfect gust of wind fills the sails or sharing an inside joke with new friends; sailing with Toronto Brigantine is a truly unique experience. Our summer sailing program teaches youth valuable leadership skills, provides them with the space to develop personal autonomy and teaches the importance of working together as a team, all while embarking on an unforgettable adventure!

“Not only would I not be who I am today without the program, I wouldn’t have met some of the best people in my life. If you are considering going on a course or (if you’re a parent) sending your child, do not hesitate. It will be on of the best experiences anyone can have.” – Jonah C. Alumni

Toronto Brigantine has been the cornerstone of Toronto youth sail training for over 50 years. As a Tall Shipstrainee, youth will have the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of traditional sailing from our experienced officers!
