Active Sail Stage 1 & 2 (Beginners)

This comprehensive 5-day course combines the RYA Stage 1 and 2 syllabi, offering a solid introduction to sailing for beginners. Over the week, young sailors will learn and practice key skills, including launching and recovery, steering, turning, and understanding basic sailing principles. The extended format allows for greater consolidation of techniques, giving participants the confidence to handle a dinghy in light winds. By the end of the course, students can earn their RYA Stage 2 certification, ready for independent sailing in controlled conditions.
