Brilliant! We were lucky to have three different teachers (Doctor, Jesús and Charlie) and a 10 for each of them. They are motivated and you can see their enthusiasm for the sea and their desire to teach. The organization and communication on the part of the school is also very good 🙂

The professor (Doctor) who teaches the course is excellent at teaching, explaining and letting people do it. It thus allows you to make mistakes and correct them, making the practice very valuable for learning. A top level professional.

Magnificent sailing practices. They are very well prepared and allow you to practice as much as necessary. The super friendly instructor answered our many questions and helped us understand how, when and why we do things on the boat.
