Sailing Almanac is an independent editorial website for readers curious about boats, coastal places and the language of life afloat. We publish introductory explanations and ideas for observing and recording time around the water.
What you will find here
Sailing Basics covers useful vocabulary. Coastal Knowledge explores the ideas behind things you can observe from shore. Afloat & Ashore is for notebooks, reading and the quieter side of boat life.
