Youth Programs

Mystic Whaler offers various programs and activities for youth to learn about the ocean and its ecosystems. Our programs promote ocean conservation, STEAM comprehension, environmental stewardship, teamwork, self-confidence, and nautical skills through adventure sailing and educational experiences about marine life. Our goal is to raise awareness about the importance of preserving the ocean and its biodiversity.

History also plays an important role as it informs our present and our future. Mystic Whaler's Living History experiential education programs also incorporate its core goals.
