Annya, your instructor and patron in this adventure:

“My adventure at sea began in a big way: crossing the Atlantic 15 years ago. Since then, I haven't stopped sailing. I am a professional skipper and a high-altitude sailor, and together with my partner Martina, we form the only women's high altitude racing team in the A2 category of the Catalunya circuit. I really enjoy teaching and bringing people closer to the world of sailing. I'm waiting for you on board the sailboat this Holy Week to enjoy our wonderful Mediterranean Sea! “


The
variable costs of food, fuel and moorings depend a lot on the students, for the activity we think it could be about 80€ approximately.

    Alejandro has extensive and deep knowledge of the sea, sailing and regattas. You learn a lot from him. The regatta is spectacular. The three days have everything, intensity, demand but also leisure and relaxation. The boat is very well equipped, cared for and maintained. Highly recommended experience.
