Sail -

Sailing is much more than just a sport, it’s a true human adventure and a communion with nature. For thousands of years, man has used the power of the wind to move around on the water, whether for trade, fishing or exploration. Today, sailing has become a leisure and competitive activity accessible to all, offering unique sensations of freedom, surpassing oneself and connecting with the environment.

What is sailing?

It’s a sport that requires both technical skills (knowledge of the wind, manoeuvres, navigation) and physical skills (endurance, balance, coordination).
