Sunsail Sailing Schools

Learn to Sail

At Sunsail, we believe sailing should be accessible to everyone—and we’re passionate about sharing the freedom, confidence, and adventure that life on the water brings. Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to build on your skills, Sunsail makes it easier than ever to begin your sailing journey. 

We’re proud to be the preferred yacht charter partner of American Sailing (ASA), one of the largest and most respected sailing education organizations in the Americas. With over 400 affiliated sailing schools across the U.S., American Sailing offers the certifications needed to bareboat charter—including Basic Keelboat (ASA 101), Basic Coastal Cruising (ASA 103), Bareboat Cruising (ASA 104), and the International Proficiency Certificate (IPC) required in many charter destinations. 

Please note: Sunsail does not directly offer ASA courses. These certifications must be completed through an accredited American Sailing school. 

As a benefit of our partnership, ASA Members and Graduates receive an extra 5% savings on Sunsail charters when using the promo code SSASA, which can be combined with other special offers for up to 15% off.
