Learn-to-Sail Program
The Outer Banks Community Sailing Program located at the boat shop on the Manteo Waterfront is an "on the water program" of The North Carolina Maritime Museum on Roanoke Island. The youth program started in 2000 to make the adventure of sailing available to youth in Dare County.

Sailing helps instill teamwork, concentration, self confidence, and appreciation for nature all wrapped up in a fun and exciting package. The program teaches youth ages 8 and older basic, intermediate and advanced sailing skills. Adult programs are also available.

All instruction is based on US Sailing guidelines and taught by US Sailing certified instructors. US Sailing is the governing body of the sport of sailing in the United Sates.

Our coaches are experienced sailors and instructors and have years of sailing experience in various boats. Their experience includes racing at the college and club levels.

Downeast Rover
Sail the Downeast Rover and see the Outer Banks from a completely different perspective. Away from the hustle and bustle of the beach, enjoy a beautiful sail on a 55-foot topsail schooner in Roanoke Sound with the Jockeys Ridge sand dunes and Roanoke Island's "The Lost Colony" as a back drop.

Watch wildlife including ospreys nesting and dolphins surfacing off the bow. Sip your favorite drink and enjoy the peace of the wind and water. We depart from the Manteo waterfront three times a day for two-hour trips and offer additional private charters for weddings, bachelor/bachelorette parties and family reunions. Give us a call and join us for a memorable tour of the Roanoke Sound.

The Downeast Rover is the premiere Outer Banks sailing experience!
