This course is for a group of 5 to 10 students and can be adapted.  So if you would like something added or you would like to skip a skill you already have, please let us know and we can make adjustments for you.

Base
The Sailing Centre is right on the water's edge, with pier and slipway on its doorstep.  Heating, catering, showers and office back-up provide you with a comfortable learning venue.  The beautiful, sheltered Adrigole Harbour leads out into Bantry Bay on the South West Coast of Ireland - one of Europe's premier cruising grounds.  There is an amazing abundance of marine life and sea birds to see every day.  The region is warmed by the Gulf Stream, so ther is rarely a frost and waters are temperate.

The base is in the quiet village of Adrigole on the Beara Peninsula in West Cork, surrounded by the Caha Mountain range, great for hiking and mountain biking on days off.  The village has four pubs, a shop and a church.  The busy town of Castletownbere is 15 minutes drive west and the village of Glengarriff is 15 minutes drive to the east.  Adrigole is 11/2 hours drive from Cork City.

Training and Cruising
All dinghy and keelboat training is provided in the sheltered waters of Adrigole Harbour, then out into the magnificent Bantry Bay and around Bere Island.  Shore-based training is in the purpose built centre.

Initial cruising training will take place along the beautiful coasts of South West Ireland.  The numerous harbours, bays and islands provide the perfect training ground.

You will take a fantastic mile building and skills building trip to or from the Canary Islands, exploring the French, Spanish and Portuguese coasts along the way and explore the beautiful Canary Islands.  This trip provides an excellent opportunity for each trainee to put newly acquired skills into real action.  It is an adventurous trip with some tough days sailing into big seas and strong winds.  Then there are the relaxing days with calm seas, sunshine and dolphins on the bow.  This trip is given plenty of time, so that each passage can follow the weather patterns, ensuring a safe journey.
