From 10:00 to 13:00 every day from Monday to Friday,in a Sea School in Alicante.
The Sea School is a small Nautical Club with a long history. It was founded in 1973 near Alicante by a group of enthusiasts of water sports trying to spread their passion for the sea. The Alicante Costa Blanca Nautical Club is located to the North of the bay, just near the Albufereta Beach, sheltered by the sea on a plain sea area. Surrounded by beaches on a safe and quiet bay, the Nautical Club is the perfect place for teens to start or continue their relationship with the waves and the wind.
The Nautical Club is an organisation officially approved by the Valencia Sailing Federation and, therefore, it follows the obligatory parameters in training, safety, material, and facilities: a trainer for every seven students, safety boats, own sea area limited by the coastal authorities, different boat types, safety coordinator, etc.
The Sailing School of the Costa Blanca Nautical Club has a qualified and highly experienced team; trainers are, in many cases, elite competitors with an important sports curriculum.
It has been chosen by the Puma Team of the Round the World Tour Alicante 2008 as the official school, recognising thus the school’s role in the world of sailing and its work promoting water sports.
The Club facilities have showers and changing rooms, activity room, and classrooms for theory lessons with different audiovisual means, as well as café and restaurant.
The Sailing School teaches navigation to those interested in the sea and, above all, to children and teens, offering courses of dinghy sailing, windsurfing, and rowing. Through the teaching of these sports, the School intends to instil essential values, such as responsibility, honesty, teamwork, and care for the environment. It intends to train new navigators and to improve the level of those who are already practising this sport, with the aim of achieving excellence within a team and sports spirit framework.
