Dinghy sailing holidays

If you have some sailing experience and can sail a triangular course this is the next level for you.

Intermediate sailors follow the RYA Level 2 - Basic Skills course. You'll be taught how to rig and launch, pick up essential safety knowledge (including how to recover from capsizing) and learn how to sail in all directions. You will come away at the end of this course a competent, light wind sailor.  If you want to get your RYA Level 2 certificate, talk to a member of the beach team and they'll let you know what is required.

Intermediate sailing tuition is available in all beachclubs except Cosmos Beachclub, Retreat Beachclub and La Pared.

We pick the best kit from Hartley, Laser, RS and Topper. The exact kit list will vary depending on the different wind and weather conditions at each of the beachclubs, but typically you're likely to come across some of the following kit:

Hartley (10, 12, Supernova, Wayfarer); Laser (1, 2000, Bahia, Dart 16, Pico, Vago); RS (16 catamaran, 200, Feva, Aero); Topper (Argo, Omega, Topaz 14CX, Topaz 16 CX); Hobie 15.

Check out the individual beachclub pages for a guide to the dinghies we plan to have available for your use. 

At its most basic you might describe a hydrofoil as a wing that enables a boat to 'fly' above the water - reducing drag and increasing speed. Foiling is suitable for any sailor with an RYA level 2 basic skills qualification who is comfortable sailing a Laser or similar.  If this sounds like you, then join us at our brand-new Mar Menor Beachclub in Spain for your first flight!

First flights: This course provides a basic introduction to foiling and foiling equipment, whilst gives you the skills required to help you make your first foiling flight. The course runs for three hours with a maximum of four other people and can be pre-booked for £89 per person.

Sustained flights: Once you have completed your first flight's course, you can join the sustained flight course. You'll be working on the techniques and theory required to foil, steer and sustain foiling effectively. The course runs for a total of 16 hours across two days with a maximum of four other people and can be pre-booked for £200 per person. Minimum age is 16 years.
