An incredible practice. Despite the adverse conditions, Raúl, the captain, always gave us confidence and security. I have learned a lot and feel much better prepared for future journeys. Incredible team

We are launching a 50' Janneau, ideal for these practices. Comfortable, good sailing and with the necessary equipment. Our instructor -Raúl- a ten in knowledge, teaching ability and treatment. Excellent in every way.

A school with a great organization. Rodrigo, the director always on top of everything. A wide variety of boats very suitable for different types of learning. The sailing teachers Luis and Martín are able to transmit not only knowledge but also the passion for sailing.

I have been delighted with both Jesús, the instructor, and the online platform. There has been perfect organization on the part of the school.

Excellent instructor, great boat &.
Mari Paz Galvez –
With this experience I reaffirm myself in saying that Escola Port is for me a great school, the best selection. Indicated at the time by my son Álvaro Almirall, also a student, who previously made a good comparison. They care about providing the best service, their professional training makes everything difficult easy and you can live it fully. In my Yacht Skipper practice, with the Captain, Raúl Serrano, I have learned a lot, his wisdom, good work, camaraderie have left a very high bar for my next practice!! With the Fora Nirvis Segundo boat wonderfully prepared and the group that has been very enjoyable, an acquisition of the school that despite being older is still great for this type of 15 meter crossings. length and 4.5 beam. It has been a pleasure and I want to continue with my studies that I am already teaching for Capitana!! and of course make my next trip soon. Thanks again to everyone and for everything!!

as always perfect! perhaps the material is beginning to be a little worn (winch worn and slipping, worn ropes, broken mainsail cover...).
Manuel Rojo López –
I think the school and the organization are good. The development of practice, good; the teacher (Raúl Serrano), the best of all by far. I'm thinking about doing CY if I have him as a teacher for the theoretical classes, specifically Astronomical Navigation. The boat, as you know, has some deficiencies.

They have really been very useful classes, with very qualified instructors. Very happy with the experience.
