Private Yacht Training (Family & Friends)
The Perfect Family Sailing Adventure with Saronic Sails
Imagine combining the excitement of learning to sail with an unforgettable holiday in one of the world’s most beautiful sailing destinations.
With the Saronic Sails RYA Training Center, your Learn to Sail vacation becomes a unique experience where training, travel, and quality time come together seamlessly.
Sail through the stunning Saronic Islands, live onboard your private yacht, and create lifelong memories with your family or friends — all while gaining real sailing skills and internationally recognised RYA certification.
Private Yacht Training is a fully customised sailing course designed exclusively for your group.
Instead of joining a mixed crew, you train together on your own yacht, guided by a certified RYA instructor.
It’s a combination of:
- Professional sailing training
- Private holiday experience
- Real cruising in the Saronic Gulf
Every private training is tailored to your needs.
Simply tell us:
- Your sailing experience level
- How much time you have available
- How many people want to participate (and get certified)
…and we take care of everything else.
From course structure to route planning, we create the perfect program for your group.
Depending on your level and goals, you can complete:
RYA Competent Crew (for beginners) | LEARN MORE
RYA Day Skipper (become a skipper in just 1–2 weeks) LEARN MORE
Or combine levels into a complete learning journey during your holiday.
You will live onboard your private yacht throughout the training, combining learning with real sailing and exploration.
During your week, you will:
✔️ Sail between beautiful islands like Aegina, Poros, Hydra & Epidavros
✔️ Take part in all sailing activities
✔️ Rotate roles (helm, navigation, crew)
✔️ Practice real decision-making
✔️ Enjoy swimming stops, seaside towns & relaxed evenings
It’s not just a course — it’s a full sailing lifestyle experience.
Private yacht training offers a completely different experience compared to standard courses:
- Learn with people you know — family or friends
- Flexible pace — adapted to your group
- More personal coaching from your instructor
- Comfort & privacy onboard
- Perfect mix of learning + holiday
Ideal for families, couples, or groups who want to learn together.
This is where the experience becomes truly powerful.
After completing your training, you can:
- Charter your own yacht
- Sail independently with your family or friends
- Explore the Saronic Gulf at your own pace
You don’t just learn sailing — you unlock a new lifestyle.
