Tabor Sailing School
Find Your Place on the Water
Building Skills, Confidence & Connections on Buzzards Bay
At Tabor Sailing School, every sailor finds their place on the water. We welcome sailors of all experience levels to learn, explore, and grow on the beautiful waters of Buzzards Bay. Each day brings hands-on adventure—rigging boats, reading the wind, and refining techniques under the guidance of our experienced sailing instructors.
Our seasoned coaching staff specializes in both developmental sailing and competitive racing, providing personalized instruction that meets sailors where they are and helps them reach their next level. On the first day of each camp week, sailors are grouped into novice, intermediate, and competative levels to ensure a supportive, engaging, and appropriately challenging experience.
From first-time beginners to confident racers, students develop skills, independence, and teamwork while discovering the joy of life under sail. With every breeze, tack, and race, they build confidence on the water and a lifelong connection to the sea.
Best for Campers Ages: 7–18.
Choose Your Sailing Adventure
Your Summer, Your Way.
Tabor Sailing School offers six weeks of flexible programming, allowing families to customize their summer by choosing one or multiple weeks of half-day or full-day sailing. For those seeking a more varied experience, morning Sailing School can be paired with afternoon activities at Tabor Camp, combining specialized sailing instruction with the excitement of traditional summer camp.
The Sailing School + Tabor Camp option gives students access to our beloved camp traditions, beginning with Hoyt Half, a 30-minute, campus-wide activity after lunch that brings together full-day campers from Tabor Camp, Sailing School, and the Ocean & Climate Institute. Afternoon Tabor Camp participants then enjoy two activities from our diverse 2027 offerings, including water adventures, sports, drama, creative arts, and more. Campers also participate in 220 Rock, a cherished tradition that brings the afternoon Tabor Summer Camp community together for a shared activity.
Residential options are available during weeks 3–6 for both full-day TSS and the combined TSS + Tabor Camp experience, bringing students from across Tabor Summer programs together for shared activities, new friendships, and a vibrant campus community.
