      When you book one of our cottages, you get more than just a great escape. Every stay includes free access to our water amenities. Qualified sailors can take out a 22′ sailboat, or keep it easy with a kayak, paddleboard on the calm bay side waters, or snorkel the crystal-clear flats.

When you pass the endorsement class, you would have the use of one of our 22′ Catalina sailboats for FREE during the rest of your stay. (Non-guests can rent a sailboat for $300 a day but it’s free for our qualified sailor guests staying at Key Lime Sailing Club and Cottages.)

       

      For more information on the sailing classes, call Capt at 305 896 5555, or send an email to learntosail@americansailingacademy.com.
