Sober Sails is a phased recovery process utilizing open-water sailing and navigation techniques as therapeutic activities to teach sailors that life can be as good as it was bad. The Sober Sails program includes a crew logbook: Navigating Recovery. As we sail throughout the week, we will set daily goals, participate in deep mindfulness exercises, and navigate challenges together. Each sailor cruising through the recovery navigation log can achieve the serenity necessary to become a better husband, son, or father.

Sober Sails is committed to creating transformative experiences for individuals in recovery from substance abuse. Our mission is to provide unique therapeutic sailing retreats in the breathtaking Apostle Islands of Lake Superior, the Florida Keys, Exumas Cays of the Bahamas, and the Virgin Islands. We dedicate ourselves daily to create a supportive and healing environment aided by the rhythm of the wind and waves. Through expertly curated sailing activities, wellness workshops, and meaningful group discussions, Sober Sails aims to empower participants with essential life skills, enhance their sense of community, and promote holistic well-being. By combining the serenity of the open sea with the principles of recovery, we strive to guide our clients towards a journey of self-discovery, personal growth, and sustained sobriety.
