One-day Sailing Taster Course with Saracen Sailing




Mallorca Activities 121 were thrilled to be invited to try a one-day taster course with Saracen Sailing.

We set off early Sunday morning aboard the Teaberry, setting sail from Alcudiamar Puerto Deportivo. Rob, the Saracen instructor took us through all the safety procedures before we set off and was soon showing us the basics.

The bay of Alcudia is probably one of the best sailing areas on the island. It has plenty of beautiful bays where you can anchor and and the scenery is fantastic.

We anchored at 'El Pinar' and had a light lunch, bread, cheeses and cold meats with fresh salad before jumping in the turqouise blue water for a refreshing swim.

The one-day taster courses are designed to give you a 'taster' of what it is like to skipper and crew a yacht, and Rob ensured we all had a go at all the different jobs involved. This really is a great way to have a go and then hopefully go back again and do some RYA training. It is also a great way to meet new people and enjoy an exceptional day out admiring some of the most picturesque scenery in Mallorca!
