Get-Kids-Afloat (GKA) Course

More and more kids are interested in sailing and we definitely see their eagerness when out on the water! With the help of our Get-Kids-Afloat course, we provide a structured theory lessons for children to learn the basics of sailing while supporting them to learn at their own pace.

Designed as an initial sailing experience for beginners, this is the program to see if your child likes sailing and wants to pursue a more advance training in the future.

For this course, we use our fleet of optimist boats or dinghies for the taller kids. Our main focus is learning through fun exercises - we want

children to love sailing and come back for more!

Capsizing and righting the boat is a fundamental (and very fun!) skill that students learn at this stage as well. Once the kids know how to sail the boats on their own, its time to start showing everyone how alert they are! Which means its time to start having a go at sailing alone and do mark rounding basics and eventually do a mini racing activity with each other!

Get the most out of your kid’s vacation with our fun sailing course. We’ve always had a phenomenal response for our Get-Kids-Afloat and we are more than happy to add more dates in the future. We want to make sure that everyone who would like to learn to sail gets the chance!
