Para Sailing

Para Sailing is a summer sport with both recreational and competitive options for all ages. Sailing is the sport of using wind to power sails and propel a boat over water. Para Sailing utilizes various forms of adaptive technology to enable people with severe physical limitations to participate equally with able-bodied sailors. Sailing enables those with disabilities to enrich their lives and build confidence in a way no other similar activity can. Disabled sailing programs provide empowerment, motivation and quality of life for people with physical disabilities.

Para Sailing in Nova Scotia is governed by Sail Nova Scotia.
