When our twins turned 2, we asked ourselves, "Where will they go to school?"After years of seeing sailors raising kids aboard their globe-trotting yachts, we were inspired. So we created the Green Coco Expedition: a 15 year world-schooling program, a learning voyage that is open to all-ages.We have teachers aboard for the kids, and we offer workshops on breathwork, sailing, culinary arts, Non-violent Communication, and RIE parenting methods.Families, single adventurers, and outdoor lovers of all types participated in trips along the way.

We are a family with 4 year old twins traveling around the world in our catamaran, Nesi. This is our home; the world is our school. Visiting teachers live aboard the boat, joined by other families and friends from the Green Coco Sailing Cooperative who participate in 2 week trips. We can't wait to share this journey with you, from near or afar :)Read more about our 10 years of Expedition Sailing from California to French Polynesia here.

We are a home-grown sailing cooperative of friends who decided to go cruising around the world! We welcome all-ages, including families with kids 6 months and up. Led by Kristian + Sabrina, we've evolved with 3 boats over the last 11 years.The "Green Coconut Run" started in 2015 in California on a 3 year trip to Tahiti. We hosted members of the co-op aboard the classic 1968 trimaran Aldebaran (42ft, read some background, with our visitors joining for 2 week legs along the way: Mexico (+Baja), El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and Ecuador (+Galapagos). Check the historical blog posts.Upon arrival in French Polynesia, we fell in love with the place. Who doesn't?? With community financing, Kristian & Sabrina (and newborn twins) upgraded to the 2000 catamaran Selavi (46ft) and started expanding the co-op with new captains for Aldebaran (Billy & Kimber). Green Coco operated mostly in Tahiti & Tuamotus atolls during these 5 years.In early 2024, we launched the Green Coco Expedition, a world-schooling circumnavigation. New captains were recruited to run SelavĂ in Tahiti's islands. Kristian & Sabrina and (now 4 year old twins) moved aboard the 2010 catamaran Nesi (60ft) in Seychelles, starting the voyage. They headed south around Madagascar, South Africa, Namibia, and across the Atlantic to Brazil. Read more about the Expedition here.Our vision for the co-op is a space to empower our community to spend time in nature, to create more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, and to help fulfill more dreams. We welcome all like-minded enthusiasts :)
