Course offered by Alejandro

4 hours
Contact
The plan consists of making cruising sailing more accessible to all those who do not have enough experience and wish to learn more about what life on board a sailboat is like.

The activity will begin with the explanation of the basics, such as the recognition of the parts that make up a sailboat or the trim of the sails according to the wind. Later we will advance until we have a well-formed notion of how to steer a modern sailing ship, including the anchoring maneuvers and the mooring and unmooring in the port.

Taking this tour has the great advantage that in addition to doing the practice itself, you can enjoy the beauty of the landscapes. The vision that we can have we assure you will be priceless since being able to admire the cliffs and the flysch of La Galea is a privilege available to very few.

Learning to sail has never been so easy. You dare?

Boat details

A safe and comfortable boat. This is a Jeanneau Sun Odissey 40.30, built in France by the renowned Jeanneau shipyard and designed by Daniel Andrieu, a naval architect with extensive experience. The hull is made of fiberglass and the deck is made of Burmese teak.

The ship features a modern and elegant interior design. The cabins and common areas are decorated with high-quality materials, creating a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere.

The cabins are spacious and comfortable, as are the common areas where guests can relax and enjoy their time on board.

Equipped with state-of-the-art navigation and safety systems, the sailboat ensures a safe and worry-free journey.

For day trips, it can accommodate 11 passengers plus the skipper. For weekly groups, however, it can accommodate 6 crew members in 3 double cabins. In the saloon there is a table that can be converted into a bed, which the skipper uses for his overnight stay.

    en junio hicimos un crucero por la costa desde Bilbao hasta Castro con Edorta. Fue un momento maravilloso para mis amigos y para mí, con Edorta como el anfitrión perfecto. el día era hermoso y con el viento en la cara, cabalgamos las olas con mucho placer. en el camino de regreso nos detuvimos para nadar en el Golfo de Vizcaya, y para un buen almuerzo preparado en el barco que consiste en una ensalada y un guiso de pescador. Volé 4.000 millas desde Boston, y este día en el agua será otro recuerdo que durará toda la vida. Te recomiendo que lo intentes también
