About this trip

You don't need to know anything about sailing to participate. This course is designed for those who want to learn to sail from scratch, in a full day that combines instruction with the beauty of the Riviera di Ulisse. We depart from Formia at 9:00 a.m. and set out on a sailboat: the absolute best place to truly understand how it works.

In the morning, we cover the basics: how to orient yourself with the wind, how to maneuver the sails, and how to steer the boat underway. No heavy theory—everything is learned by doing, with your hands on the mainsail and the halyard in hand. The skipper instructor guides each participant directly on board, with a practical and unhurried approach.

In the afternoon, we sail along the Riviera di Ulisse and towards Sperlonga and Gaeta, putting into practice what we learned in the morning. We stop in the most beautiful coves for a break, swim, use the SUP, and enjoy the sea through the eyes of those who already understand a little more about how a sailboat moves. A traditional lunch is included and served on board during the stop.

Water is included all day, all teaching materials are on board, and you don't have to bring anything. Contact us to check available dates and the maximum number of participants per session.

Learning to sail is one of those things that, once you've learned it, you never stop wanting to do.
