What do you learn on a sailing course in Mallorca?

On a sailing course in Mallorca, you learn the same things as in Germany - with the crucial difference that the sailing does not take place on inland waters, but on the beautiful Mediterranean. A sailing course in Mallorca will teach you the most important theoretical and practical knowledge so that you can sail safely and independently. Many sailing courses offer the opportunity to obtain a sailing licence at the end of the course, which allows you to hire sailing boats and sail without supervision. The practical part of a sailing course in Mallorca is the main focus, but the theory is also important.

Sailing course in Mallorca - the theory

As with almost everything, you first learn the theoretical part of sailing. On a sailing course in Mallorca, you often learn the names and correct handling of all boat parts and the necessary knots directly on the boat. In theory, you will learn which laws must be observed when sailing, how to protect the sensitive nature and environment when sailing and which safety regulations should be observed on board. The theory on the sailing course in Mallorca serves to prepare you thoroughly and calmly for the practice and to give you enough information worth knowing so that you can make the right decisions independently while sailing.

Practical training on a sailing course in Mallorca

Of course, practical training is the main focus of a sailing course in Mallorca. In the marvellous turquoise-blue sea, you will learn step by step how to prepare your sailing boat and set sail in different wind forces. You will learn how to cast off correctly and later moor again, how to set and hoist the sails correctly and how to control the speed while sailing. You will also learn how to brake the sailing boat correctly on a sailing course in Mallorca - because if you set off, you have to be able to stop again! The various basic sailing manoeuvres such as tacking, jibing and tacking up are part of the standard repertoire of every basic sailing course.

Who is a sailing course in Mallorca suitable for?
