World Ocean School
Experiential education, public sails, and private charter events aboard our two historic tall ships.
World Ocean School exists to provide students of all backgrounds with immersive opportunities to learn to care for themselves, their crew, and the ir ship, becoming vessels of change in the world they inherit. We operate programs aboard the traditionally rigged schooners Roseway and Denis Sullivan.
After a long and arduous journey Steve and Denis Sullivan have made it back to Boston!
Please share and follow so my boss continues to “support” our new marketing ideas.

Happy World Ocean Day from World Ocean School! 🌊
Today we’re celebrating the whales, dolphins, sunfish, and countless other reasons we believe every young person should have the chance to experience life on the water.

It will also help ensure that cost is not a barrier for students to participate onboard the ship!
