Voyages revolve around hands-on sailing, learning to scuba dive, and instruction in marine science. All our educational experiences are geared toward adventure, leadership, growth and fun.

SeaTrek students (of similar ages) live and play on-board one of several 48-foot catamaran sailing yachts. The yachts are equipped with the latest safety equipment and on-board technology. Our staff of scuba and sailing instructors is the best in the industry. They have years of experience teaching and guiding students all over the world.
