CORAL REEF SAILING
Overview: Sea Base Coral Reef Adventure participants will set sail into the most diverse ecosystem in
North America. The Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary is home to thousands of underwater species,
including dolphins, sea turtles, fish, and Florida’s Coral Reef. Participants will snorkel, fish, and sail
turquoise waters. Setting sail from beautiful Islamorada, Florida, crews will embark on the adventure of a
lifetime. Below you will find an overview of your week at Sea Base. Please note that the program is
dictated by weather, tides, and the ability of the crew. Your float plan can vary, sometimes widely, due
to these factors. We make every attempt to have sailing, snorkeling, and fishing as a part of every day.
Coral Reef Sailing Crew Size: 6- 8 individuals. This number includes both youth and adult participants.
Due to US Coast Guard regulations, crews may not exceed the maximum number allowed.
Length of Adventure: 5 nights, 6 days, including arrival and departure dates. For example, crews arriving
at Sea Base on Sunday will depart Sea Base on the following Friday.
Arrival: Crews must check in between 1:00pm and 3:00pm on their arrival day. We ask Winter and Early
Spring (before DST changes) crews to arrive between 12:30pm and 1:00pm.
