Host Your Workshop or Seminar at Capt Hiram’s Resort
Bring your group together for a productive event in a setting that feels different from the typical meeting room. Capt Hiram’s Resort offers flexible options for organizations searching for a workshop and seminar venue in Sebastian, Florida, with indoor meeting spaces, waterfront gathering areas, dining, entertainment, and resort accommodations all in one destination.

Choose the Right Space for Your Workshop or Seminar

Give Attendees Space to Connect Between Sessions
A successful workshop or seminar isn’t only about what happens during the presentation. Breaks, meals, networking, and informal conversations give attendees additional opportunities to connect and discuss what they’ve learned.
Capt Hiram’s waterfront setting allows organizers to move those parts of the event outside the meeting room.
The Cove – Waterfront Networking and Reception Space
Capacity: Up to 100 guests
Setting: Open-air waterfront venue
The Cove offers an open-air environment with riverfront views, palm trees, and sandy accents. It can complement a workshop or seminar as a setting for networking receptions, group meals, cocktail hours, or post-event gatherings.
Bimini Beach – Beachfront Post-Event Gathering Space
Capacity: Up to 100 guests
Setting: Outdoor beachfront venue
After a day of presentations or training, attendees can move onto Bimini Beach for a more relaxed gathering. The white sand, palm trees, and Bahamian-inspired atmosphere make it a distinctive option for networking, group dinners, and closing celebrations.
Scoops Bar – Casual Networking and Happy Hour Space
Capacity: Up to 40 guests
Setting: Elevated outdoor bar space
Scoops Bar is a natural option for smaller workshop or seminar groups that want to continue conversations after the formal program. Guests can gather for drinks in an outdoor setting near resort dining, entertainment, live music, and lodging.
Turn a Workshop Into a Destination Experience
For organizations bringing attendees together from outside the Sebastian area, Capt Hiram’s offers the opportunity to turn a workshop or seminar into more than a few hours in a meeting room.
Participants can attend educational sessions during the day, gather along the waterfront afterward, enjoy dining and entertainment at the resort, and stay on property when accommodations are needed.
Groups looking to add another shared experience can also consider the Anita Boat, a stationary full-size boat with seating for up to 35 guests, or the River King, a private captained pontoon boat accommodating up to 40 guests for cruises along the Indian River Lagoon.
These additional options can be especially useful for multi-day programs, professional retreats, association gatherings, and workshops where networking and relationship building are important parts of the overall experience.
