On your second week you can set sail and continue aboard our Nytec '23 in flotilla. These sailboats have a shallow draft that allow us to discover the wonderful Strait of Bonifacio between Sardinia and Corsica. Every sailboat hosts one instructor and 3 students.

Besides sailing along the coast, the course offers some excursions on land, stops on spectacular beaches and all the fun related to sea flotilla camping.

Living sparely on board will require some spirit of adaptation, but you will get so much fun out of it!
