Navigation license in Madrid and surroundings

Would you like to get a nautical degree and live in Madrid? If you are one of those who thought that to obtain this type of degree you had to go to a school on the coast, you are wrong.

You can obtain your navigation license in Madrid or surroundings, you will only need two hours of theoretical training and four hours of navigation practices. You see, in just one day! Navigation practices can be carried out in inland waters and reservoirs such as the San Juan Reservoir, therefore, it is feasible to obtain the license without having to travel to the coast.

Our nautical school in Madrid has its homologation certificate and has small motor boats for carrying out practices in reservoirs near the capital, such as the San Juan reservoir in San Martín de Valdeiglesias, or the Entrepeñas reservoir, in Sacedón , province of Guadalajara.

Once you obtain your title in Madrid in just one day, you will be able to take motor boats up to six meters in length. When you go sailing, whether in Madrid or any Spanish coast, you have to bear in mind that this qualification is limited, since you can only go a maximum of 2 nautical miles from the coastal zone, in any direction from a port, marina or sheltered place. It will also grant you permission to drive any type of jet ski, a great idea for when your vacation comes around.

Keep in mind that this navigation license is very basic and does not allow night navigation, so you can leave the port after sunrise and you must be back before sunset. If you want to expand your skills, you would have to take other higher-ranking degrees, such as the PNB or the PER, which you can also obtain at our nautical school in Madrid (although the practices this time, yes, will be in the coastal area since they require greater difficulty) .

It is the only requirement to obtain your navigation license. Simply, before or after completing the course and practice, you would have to submit the original psychotechnical certificate to the Madrid nautical school indicating that your skills are suitable to be a skipper.

This medical certificate for the navigation license in Madrid is not included in the price of the courses, it usually costs between €25-35. You can choose the medical center you want from all over Madrid from those that carry out this type of certificates for boats. It is about visual tests of reaction and identification of numbers and colors very similar to what is usually for the car license.
