This experience, in a nutshell

The Coastal and Offshore Navigation Course is designed for those who wish to gain a first experience or choose to deepen their knowledge and practically face navigation with the procedures for the organization of the cruise, the reading of nautical charts, weather reports, the fundamentals of charting, the tasks of the crew members, night navigation and last but not least the kitchen on board.

 The fun of this sport or recreational specialty lies in always learning, from every outing at sea even after years and years of experience, the discovery of new emotions and teachings.

Humility is the first tool with which one must face the sea.

Sailing is not a badge, but a philosophy and a culture.


CRUISE – HYERES SCHOOL - PORQUEROLLES

The Iles d'Hyères (also known as Iles d'Or or Porquerolles Islands), an oasis of tranquility and beauty, where nature is also preserved thanks to strict regulations, including the prohibition of camping and smoking.

Eight kilometers long by two and a half kilometers wide, a petanque field in the village square, a few small bars serving local wine and pastis. White sandy beaches, crystal clear sea, the scent of pines, lavender and eucalyptus, 70 kilometres of trails to discover on foot or by bike.


A week suitable for everyone, the more experienced will be able to practice sailing and navigation, to learn how to sail safely with a captain with professional qualifications and a sailing instructor


Below you will find the general program according to weather and sea conditions for the week.

This was our first sailing trip and we had a great time with Carlo on his boat [hidden] [hidden]. Carlo was a great skipper trying to get everyone involved in various tasks including steering the boat. He gives great tips and his main C[hidden]o was that sailing is about finding the best 'compromise'. He looked after the well being of everyone without being too intrusive. The boat is well equipped and the kitchen and fridges worked very well.
