Our sailing
courses are generally in the
Saronic and Argolic Gulfs
where conditions are predictable and ideal for sailing. The
weather is almost always sunny and warm. Winds are normally light
to moderate, an ideal training environment. Our base and starting point is on the island of
Poros where we also operate the shore based and pre
flotilla courses. Poros is a long established yachting
base and an attractive holiday island with a proud history.
The live
aboard courses will typically visit other islands such as
Aegina and Angistri as
well as the attractive Peloponnese coast. There are plenty of
challenges for trainee skippers, with stronger winds, traffic
separation schemes, sectional lights, and numerous fast boats
and busy ferry ports to deal with. All under the
experienced eye of one of our instructors.
This is a
scenic and beautiful area and there will be time during
the course for swimming off the boat, sight-seeing and
exploring. You will find information about some of the places
you can visit on our
Links page.
They include spectacular ancient ruins, picturesque fishing
villages and attractive historic towns. The area maintains its
traditional Greek character and, although you will find foreign
tourists, resorts are geared to Athenian holidaymakers rather
than the package tourists, which is always a good sign for the authentic lifestyle and traditional Greek cuisine.
We have chosen this wonderful area as
our home and look forward to welcoming you.
