A communal food and beverage purchase is conducted by the sailing crew at the beginning of the week. Food and beverage consumption is either done on the boat or at local bay area restaurants. Our guests generally enjoy breakfast and lunch on the yacht and dinners at bay area restaurants for a local gastronomical experience.

A typical sailing day starts with early morning swims and breakfast which is free time for our guests until 11 am. After free time we start our theoretical class courses which last for one hour and is followed by practical sailing lessons at sea until 17 pm. The sailing yacht anchors at a different bay each day where a general briefing is performed with each student/guest. Once briefed our guests enjoy free/private time with activities such as swimming, natural forrest and bay hiking, diving, and visits to ancient cities in the area. Dinner is enjoyed all together with the captain and crew after which everybody rests for the exciting next day to come
