Corfu Sea School is a British RYA (Royal Yachting Association)
approved training centre. We operate all year round and provide
a wide range of courses from our base in Corfu, Greece. We pride
ourselves in offering a relaxed yet comprehensive tuition
package in all aspects of yachting including, sailing,
navigation, and seamanship.
All of our practical courses are run on modern, fully equipped
yachts or powerboats that meet the stringent requirements of the
MCA safety code. Whether you are a complete novice, improver or
“old hand” looking to gain a specific qualification we are
confident that we can provide a course that will suit you.
All of our courses are designed to be fun but with a STRONG
emphasis on safety. We have 3 goals:
A)
To provide a sail training that’s second to none AND
B)
To ensure that our clients thoroughly enjoy their
experience !
C)
For you to get the most from your Ionian Holiday
The school’s Principal is Steve Hills, he’s a RYA Yacht master
and Powerboat Instructor with over 30 years experience and has
sailed in this area for many years. Steve ( or one of his team
of RYA qualified Instructors), will join you on your yacht for a
pre- agreed number days at the beginning of your holiday and
will structure a course according to your needs.
Courses are taught in a ratio of 1 instructor to 5 candidates.
During the course you will visit a number of local harbors and
anchorages, practice new techniques, extend your cruising range
and gain greater confidence in your navigation and boat handling
skills.
The RYA training scheme provides tuition for all levels of
experience and ability. It is a progressive process (you work
your way through the levels) over a period of time. You can
enter the scheme at any level ( provided you have the necessary
experience for the course chosen). Complete beginners should
start with the Competent Crew Course. Thereafter, the syllabus
progresses through Day Skipper, Coastal Skipper, and Yachtmaster.
We also offer shore based theory courses which teach candidates
navigation, seamanship and meteorology.
Below you will find two examples of our courses with pricing.
