Choosing a sailing school that suits you can make a huge difference to your experience of learning to sail. If sailing is your dream, you’ll want to fulfil it in just the right way with people you like and can trust. Here are 7 reasons people love us and choose to sail with us.
1. RYA Tuition – Simply The Best!
The RYA (Royal Yachting Association) has a world-wide reputation. Their teaching materials are excellent and they inspect every recognised training centre every year to ensure they meet RYA standards. If you’re the sort of person who looks for quality, you’re looking in the right place. Find out more about the RYA.
2. Our Convenient Location
Our base is on the pretty island of Aegina. We’re close enough to Athens to be convenient for flights and visits to the city but we’re a world away in atmosphere. You’ll experience authentic Greek island life throughout your time with us. Find out more about our location.
3. Our Beautiful Unspoilt Sailing Area
Our sailing area includes both picturesque islands and attractive mainland ports. It’s relatively unspoilt by foreign tourism. You’ll visit different places each day, including some that are ‘off the beaten track’ and easier to reach by sea than by road. Find out more about our sailing area.
4. Our Expert Instructors & Tuition
Our instructors are highly experienced, extremely practical sailors, with sociable friendly personalities. We don’t employ inexperienced or newly qualified instructors. You can be assured that you will get the quality of tuition you want from someone who knows the sailing area and has lots of expertise in teaching as well as in sailing or power-boating. Find out more about our team.
5. Our comfortable & Well-Equipped Yachts
We use big, comfortable, well-maintained yachts. They are dedicated teaching boats with many items you won’t find on a charter yacht, including a small library of sailing books. If you’re coming alone you’ll get your own cabin; we don’t expect students to share a cabin with a stranger or to sleep in the saloon. Find out more about why people love our yachts.
6. International and Inclusive
We have students of all ages from all over the world – over 72 different nationalities to date. You’re never too young or too old to enjoy yachting – we cater for everyone from toddlers to pensioners (although we don’t mix families with other adult clients). If you have limitations on your mobility or other issues – you’re welcome too. Contact us to find out what we can provide for you.
7. An Extremely Personal Service
If you’re looking for something a little bit different, we can tailor what we offer to your requirements. We run many private courses for couples, friends, or families so you can get your own personal Instructor and a little more privacy on board. You can also ask us to help with transfers and with hotels – we know the best places to stay. Read more about our private sailing courses.
