About Us
Sailing for Everyone
White Rock Lake is the gem of Dallas but the beauty and serenity of being on the water is an opportunity relatively few people can enjoy. The Spirit of Dallas makes this magical experience available for free to all citizens of Dallas. Everyone, no matter their social, economic or physical abilities, can board The Spirit of Dallas, a 38’ custom catamaran and enjoy the tranquility as the wind quietly powers the sailboat across the lake.

How To Get To Our Location
We recommend taking the DART train to White Rock Station, biking or walking the White Rock Lake trail to the park. If you drive, park in any of the parking lots along northeast shore of the lake and enjoy a stroll to the dock located across from Big Thicket on the northeast end of East Lawther Drive. Please do not park in the grass; you will be ticketed and it causes erosion.
