About this organization
Mission
Call of the Sea's hands-on sailing programs are designed to spark students' life-long quest to explore the world around them, act as stewards in their communities, and unleash their potential to achieve their dreams. Our sail training programs are designed to build self-confidence, self-awareness, discipline, and the teamwork and leadership skills inherent in being part of a ship's crew. In the real world of wind and water, students work together at sailing the brigantine Matthew Turner and Schooner Seaward, accepting challenges that widen their horizons. Call of the Sea's integrated educational programs use the maritime environment and the traditions of the sea to teach marine science topics, coastal history and navigation as we explore San Francisco Bay and the ocean beyond.
About
Call of the Sea offers on-the-water environmental education programs that occur on an 82' educational vessel known as Schooner Seaward. Youth benefit by connecting with their local bay ecology and maritime history. Most participants learn though a 3 hour 'bay explorations' program that takes place on the San Francisco Bay. During the summer months, youth can also participate in the 'voyage seaward' program which is a 3 to 5-day over night program. Occasionally, youth participate on dockside programs too. In total, about 5,000 participants partake in Call of the Sea's educational programs.
