Don your life jacket and climb aboard your sleek 26-foot (8-meter) sailboat to begin your maritime adventure.
Listen to a short safety briefing and enrich your knowledge of sailing procedures before setting sail into the open waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Observe the skyline for the splintered spire of La Sagrada Familia as your skipper offers expert knowledge of sailing techniques.
If a beginner, learn the basics of rope work, steering and safety while more advanced sailors can refine skills and grasp the mastery of boat handling. Feel a sense of accomplishment as you steer the boat towards objects of interest then return to the marina and bid your skipper farewell.

Had a great day the captain was really helpful and answered all my question, highly recommended.
The boat was modern and well kept...

The boat was modern and well kept. Our guide was very friendly and he gave us the opportunity to help him sail. Our teenager girls enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately we expected a sunnier day but it was fun anyway.
Très bien pour débuter comme pour raviver des souvenirs

Très bien, nous avons passé un bon moment, l’instructeur était parfait. Nous avons navigué avec deux autres personnes habitués et expérimentés.
C’est un cours de voile, j’y ai vu des gens venir avec des enfants et des bouées gonflables, ce n’est pas fait pour eux.
