Designed for kids aged 7 years old and up, GROMMET! is a fun, adventurous, and educational programme that will introduce the art of sailing to young explorers. Where adventure meets courage and discovery, kids will pick up invaluable skills like responsibility, problem-solving and teamwork as they take up new challenges and explore what it takes to be a sailor.

A grommet's adventure ​

  • Time for some introductions! Get to know your friendly instructor, crew, and your fellow Grommets. 

  • Receive your nifty sailing experience workbook that includes 2 sailing module checklists, sailing tips and tricks, fun activities and much more!

  • Your safety is our number one priority. Before we set sail, we will run through a safety briefing where you’ll learn more about the safety equipment on board and the appropriate steps to take in the event of any emergency.

  • Once everyone has understood the safety briefing, it’s time to set sail towards the Southern Islands! On the journey there, you’ll get to experience what life as a sailor is really all about. From hoisting the mainsail to helming (steering) the boat at the wheel, you’ll not only get to have exciting hands-on experiences as you work closely with your fellow Grommets to sail your boat towards the Southern Islands but you’re guaranteed to have lots of fun while doing so too!
