CARA NA MARA IS BACK FOR 2024!
WE’RE DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO BRING MORE FUN, SKILLS AND SEAMANSHIP FOR LITTLE SAILORS IN 2024
Background
This is the ISA’s fun, shore based initiative focuses on delivering basic sailing skills and seamanship to 6-8 year olds. It is a child focused approach to introducing sailing to children. The programme allows children to discover, explore and practice the skills and knowledge they will need as sailors while under the leadership and supervision of ISA Instructors within an ISA accredited Training Centre. It has a strong emphasis on allowing the sailors to appreciate and enjoy the water and outdoor environment safely. These skills and knowledge tie into the National School curriculum.
