Junior Summer Sailing Camps

For Sailors Ages 7 to 14

Junior Summer Sailing CampEveryone can learn to sail and skills learned can be used and enjoyed for a lifetime.  OCC's Junior Summer sailing program, invites youth ages 7 to 14 to discover the magic of sailing on the calm waters of Newport Bay.  The primary aim of our Jr. Summer Program is to provide a place where  young sailors can develop solid sailing and seamanship skills, learn about the marine environment and experience the exhilaration and freedom of sailing.

Our summer staff is comprised of experienced US SAILING certified instructors and several junior assistants who will insure a fun and safe learning experience by combining classroom instruction with games and lots of time on the water sailing.  OCC is an ideal place for your child to learn about sailing and the marine environment.

If your child has not sailed since last summer we encourage you to let him or her repeat the last class they participated in - this especially applies to younger sailors.  

Students must be able to swim 50 yards and a swim test will be give on the first day of class.  Students should bring a change of clothes, towel, hat, sunscreen and snack each day.

Select from our comprehensive schedule of classes and create your own summer of fun on the water.
