The Archipelago Sport course, in addition to providing the basics of sailing, is oriented towards recreation and knowledge of the marine area of the Piombino channel and the Island of Elba and is aimed at people with any level of sailing experience. Access to the course does not require pre-requisites.

TOPICS COVERED

Great Stephen, regatta course in the pouring rain with sea formed and "barrel" from 30 knots of wind. I believe that only in this way can we really learn to navigate. All this always and in any case in safety and under his supervision. Thanks also to Germano who guided us for the regatta we did the next day (this time under the sun). Great staff

Fantastic experience! Stefano and the other instructors proved to be very competent and professional. The days well organized between theory and a lot of practice. Not everyone might like the guesthouse, if you are picky maybe you are looking for a separate accommodation.

A fantastic experience. An extremely professional team that gives everyone the opportunity to be able to approach this wonderful passion. The days are well balanced between theory (just enough) and practice (at will!). Patient and motivated instructors: Marta, despite being only 23 years old, has leadership to spare. You can breathe the love for the sea, first of all.
