A sailing voyage for children aged 6–12 and their parents. You can look forward to a mix of hands-on learning, active participation in life aboard the boat, and plenty of time for relaxation and fun.
Family sailing trips offer a change of scenery and a new way to spend your time—a refreshing alternative to traditional land-based package holidays that provides a complete "reset" for both adults and children.
During this youth regatta, the group sets off on a week-long maritime expedition aboard comfortable cruising yachts, guided by experienced captains and camp counselors.
Our highly qualified skippers teach participants the fundamentals of sailing while instilling a love for the sea and adventure in both adults and children alike!
Children and parents stay in comfortable double cabins. Each boat features three bathrooms equipped with showers and hot water for every five cabins.
Every boat has its own fully equipped kitchen, where participants prepare meals using fresh ingredients sourced from local shops and port markets.
The boats are equipped with special "BabyNet" safety netting.
During the regatta, children and their counselors will learn to tie nautical knots, discover what life is really like for sailors, fly kites, build sandcastles, enjoy a picnic on a deserted island, solve the mystery of a secret book, and hunt for treasure! They will also learn to spot the North Star and identify the Big and Little Dipper in the night sky!
While the children are having fun, parents can spend their free time pursuing their own interests—or join in on the activities with their kids!
By the end of the trip, both parents and children will understand the roles of a sailor, boatswain, navigator, radio operator, and first mate. They will learn how to tie a bowline knot, rig fenders, secure lines to a cleat, handle mooring lines, and—when it’s time to set sail—call out, "Anchor is clear!"
A family yachting trip in Croatia, Montenegro, Turkey, Greece, or Italy is a fantastic alternative to a typical beach vacation. It’s a wonderful opportunity to grow closer to your children, make new friends, work together as a team, and return home with a boost of positive energy that will last all year long!
