- With 18,000 students per year, it is the leading sailing school in Europe
- Cruising and light sailing courses are available
The school was founded in 1947 and now trains 18,000 students a year throughout France. It is internationally recognized for the quality of its teaching. Trainees come from all over Europe, but this is the first time that courses are given in English. These courses for adults are set up in Southern Brittany, starting from Vannes (Morbihan), as well as on the magnificent archipelago of Les Glénans, by catamaran. This new offer should be extended to other sites next year.
