Brittany

Today’s destination: Le Dahouet. Today you will meet your instructor and your fellow sailors, go provisioning (3pm), get onboard the boat (5pm) and receive briefings, ready for pushing out in the morning (or in the evening depending on the weather).

Today’s destination: Roscoff. Famous harbour for both fishing and welcoming the first technical stops of famous racers having just started the Route du Rhum or the Transat Jacque Vabres. In your case, it will be the opportunity to navigate the boat safely, taking into account the many rocks, kelp and currents up to 9kts around the bay

Today’s destination: Saint Cast. Really cute little beach town with plenty of anchorages around, depending on weather, we could also try to reach the Ebihen island and a good overnight stop at anchor if conditions allow. During the day you will be refining your trimming and reefing and coached to find those extra half-knots of boat speed.

Today’s destination: Chausey. During the day you will visit Chausey Island, providing great navigation challenges around the rocks of the area. In the evening, the appropriately named little island provides a great overnight stop. With water as clear as the Caribbean and only a few dozen habitants, this is one of the finest English channel islands.

Today’s destination: Bréhat island. A lovely little island, combining stunning views, great restaurants and really cool bicycle rides (bikes for rent on the island). It’s also the place to go souvenirs shopping, munch some fresh creps and go for a dinghy ride to explore secluded beaches.

Today’s destination: Paimpol. Ever gone through a lock before? Well getting into Paimpol will be the opportunity ! Make sure you have your tides right before trying to access this typical north brittany little town. Fine restaurants and sticky sailors bars will be your reward (if you don’t run aground getting in)

Today’s destination: Saint Malo. Today is an early start as we make our way to finish the week in the legendary port of Saint Malo, really impressive enclosed city, almost destroyed during WWII, it has been restored and definitely worth to check out. In the afternoon if you have any ASA exams, this is when you will sit them. After sailing back to Le Dahouet, you will get together for a final bash in the restaurants and bars of the village.

A final debrief over breakfast, and then you will be anointed as an ex-Virgin! You will leave the yacht by 9am and head to the airport or to continue your adventures.
