    I had to do the stcw 10 course for work which can be hard to fin the right school. One I email yacht point I new this would be the best place to take the course. They respond very fast with there emails and answer your questions in full, they have a very nice atmosphere in the school and the office is a lot of help and always friendly. Everyone in my class was happy with there course and would go back to yacht point at a different time...

    I did the YM Offshore with Yacht Point. A very positive experience, both because of the logistical and administrative support from Yacht Point allowing the candidates to focus on learning and because the instructor for the exam preparation managed the five days very well allowing us to learn the necessary skills for the exam. And then, of course, Aquitat III is a great boat.

    The studying through 5 days trip was really useful for me, to get basics in sailing and get experience for complete navigating, mooring and things, in a ship from point A to B. Probably, I will plan to pass new courses and get certifications through Yacht Point.

    Thanks to Liam, we had good practical studying and thoughtful answers from him.

    Yesterday finished the Day Skipper practical course. Five days on a Sun Odyssey 49 sailboat, doing lots of practice on handling skills as tacking, gybing, docking/undocking man overboard drills, etc. Everyone improved a lot during the course, so really a big step to become confident. Great boat, great crew and special mention for Liam, excellent instructor, lots of pacience, friendly and supportive when you're sweating in a new drill.

    I have done with Yacht Point the Yachtmaster course. It has been a very positive experience. A very practical way to learn, that helps you navigate with confidence.

    I did my Yacht Master Offshore course here late last year. I can't say anything but positive, they were professional, bi lingual, super well equipped and more than helpful with any administrative issues I had.
    The boat was perfect for the practical training and the instructor was a pro!
    I'll recommend Yacht Point for anyone who wants to do nautical training!

    I've taken two courses at Yachtpoint. Most recently, I went on a weekend sailing practical to Mallorca with Cesar on his Sun Odyssey 49 as part of my Patron de Yate.

    The boat was really comfortable, much better equipped than most Spanish charter or school boats I've been on, which are usually owned by the schools rather than the instructors. Instruments are high-end, it had a full complement of sails including a code zero headsail, even cushions - first time I've seen them on a Spanish boat. This is clearly Cesar's boat, and he takes care of it as such.

    While many Spanish sailing instructors view their jobs as just taking people out for a sail, Cesar is a charismatic instructor who takes great care to make sure his students actually improve their skills. He went above and beyond to give an extensive safety briefing, explain the instruments on his boat, review some navigation skills - and we even spent time practicing boat handling skills, docking and man overboard drills.

    I also took a Yachtmaster Ocean theory course at Yachtpoint. The instructor was a highly-experienced ocean sailor and an exceptionally good teacher - there were even two students who came from outside Spain to take the class because they'd heard about him. The classes were interesting and I felt well-prepared for the exam, (which I passed!).

    I should add that Yachtpoint had cancelled the Patron de Yate class I originally signed up for because there wasn't enough demand. They referred me to another program in town, which was a disaster. The instructor simply didn't know how to teach. When I dropped out of the course, Yachtpoint offered to make up for it by offering to let me take the course with them another time at no extra charge.

    My experience with Yachtpoint has been nothing but positive. I recommend them highly.

    I am a student in Yacht Point sailing school and I am very satisfied. The teachers explain everything very understandable and it's even fun to learn something there. If you have a question, you will always reach someone. The Yacht Point team takes time for someone and they are very friendly. The courses are kept small, so you do not sink in the crowd. Its a great school and only recommendable.

    I am a student at the school Yacht Point and I found that the team is very competent, very nice and very welcoming.

    The entire team provides constant help to us whether it's over the phone or face to face.

    Thereby that's why I recommend you to choose this sailing school because she will accompany you throughout your learning by explaining everything to you and being at your disposal with kindness.
