Roman has transmitted his energy and made us take advantage of many practices. I will practice again soon, thank you very much for everything, everything was perfect. Oh…also dolphins, 6 or 7. A great merci
Cesar Cabral –
As always with Escola Port I learned a lot in these practices. The boats are in very good condition and the teachers have a lot of experience
Albert Conesa –
My assessment is very positive, I did the sailing practice and I wanted to highlight both the great professionalism of our sailing teacher and the entire Escola Port team, thank you very much and we will surely continue to see each other in future courses.
Hector DV –
Everything was very good, the instructor was friendly and very knowledgeable about sailing. It's a shame the weather was very calm and we had little wind.
Maria –
The practice of sailing has been developed with seriousness and rigor but in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The teacher politely explained and repeated all the concepts about sail trimming, and insisted that all students be in all positions and have the opportunity to perform all the maneuvers as many times as necessary. During all hours of practice we were active participating in all activities.
Mark Ferrer –
Everything is great!!! We did all the maneuvers needed to enjoy sailing and we repeated them several times. Little wind but very well used

I really liked the level of the instructors, especially Carlos Sala and the 'doctor' as well as the group that we met.

Luciano Font –
My PY practice has been positive, it has shown me that the school is professional and I have learned to carry out what I have learned from a theoretical way to practice. the boat has behaved well, the group has been cooperative and the instructor/skipper has been very professional. If I have to repeat, I already know where I have to go and I will recommend the experience to my environment.

A very complete 48-hour journey in which we have enjoyed: enough wind, very good seas, an excellent atmosphere in the group, a good instructor captain and a great sailboat.
