Full description
Do you think you can do better than Odin and Neptune?
If you want to learn to master the sea and the wind ‘like a god’, all you have to do is put yourself to the test with a sailing lesson in Lido di Camaiore – the perfect spot to get started in this sport!
Together with a qualified instructor, you’ll spend 2 or 3 hours entirely focused on learning the basics of sailing.
What we will do
We’ll meet at the selected time at the meeting point in Lido di Camaiore (LU).The instructor will be there to welcome us and guide us through our introductory sailing lesson.
The session will begin with a brief theoretical introduction on land, where we’ll be taught about the different points of sail, knots and winds to learn the principles and basics of sailing.
Afterwards, we’ll put on our lifejackets and board the boat to begin the practical session on the water.
We’ll be sailing on an RS Vision, a spacious, high-performance dinghy that’s ideal for learning. Under the instructor’s constant guidance, we’ll get to try our hand at on-board manoeuvres and even learn how to capsize, experiencing every aspect of the sport.
The lesson will last a total of 2 hours or 3 hours, depending on the option chosen.
