A new horizon
At Team Paradise, we are excited to have welcomed a new group of kids to come sailing with us. Divine Academy is a private school in Pembroke Pines, FL, for students with neurodiversities. The eight students and two teachers were divided into two teams and boarded a couple of our Sonar sailboats. None of them had sailed before. We stayed close to shore on a very scenic route. We sailed towards Brickell, then made a left into the Deering Channel, circumnavigating the little island at Viscaya, continuing southward along the shore past Mercy Hospital to Grove Isle. We returned to port through the Sea Plane Channel and tacked our way back to the US Sailing Center.
We have two more sailing excursions with the Divine Academy before our Holiday break. Check out the pictures and video below. Thank you for sailing with us!
