Coming April 1-2, 2023!
Sarasota Youth Sailing
at The Sarasota Sailing Squadron
1717 Ken Thompson Parkway
Sarasota, FL 34236
Sarasota Youth Sailing’s historic SAILFEST regatta draws 250+ participating sailors and their families from throughout the region to race Optimist, ILCA, and 420 courses off the shore of the Sarasota Sailing Squadron and Ken Thompson Park. Happening the weekend of April 1-2, SAILFEST will be filled with family fun, vendors, coffee and ice cream, and a delicious seafood cookout with Walt’s Fish Market Saturday night. We can’t wait to see you there! This April, the regatta is turning thirty five! Everyone is so excited to be celebrating over three decades together as we work hard every year to deliver a fun and successful annual fundraising regatta to support our youth sailors. SAILFEST funds go directly to our nonprofit youth sailing organization so that we may continue to provide excellent programming for kids ages 5-18 in our community and set them up for the success they deserve.
