Details
After last summer’s success, our sailing camp is back again this spring! Come and take advantage of the mild weather during the last week of Easter holiday to set sail for adventure!
Organised in collaboration with Geneva Sailing School (Geneva, Pâquis), this camp promises an exhilarating experience on the lake for 8-12 year-olds.
Working as a crew, they’ll set sail and learn the basics of sailing in a fun and reassuring environment. Under the guidance of experienced and passionate instructors, each child will embark on a timeless maritime voyage.
In crews of 6, they’ll discover the basics of sailing a sailboat, learn to hoist the sails, steer, tie knots and look after their own safety. They will also learn to live together, and be attentive to others. Children will be made aware of the privileged environment that is lake Geneva, and the importance of preserving it and its ecosystem.
An exciting way to discover the world of sailing while having fun!
Places are limited, so hoist the sails and sign up now for a memorable Spring adventure!
Welcome aboard!
Please note that no prior knowledge of sailing or swimming is required. Children will be equipped with life jackets. If the weather does not allow sailing, the camp will be maintained and other activities around sailing and Lake Geneva will be organised.
