Level 1 sailing courses are ideally suited to sailors who are already familiar with the basics of sailing and have some previous experience.
Sunsail Level 1 Courses are intermediate level courses designed to help sailors to improve on their skills and add to their knowledge and confidence to take their sailing further, perhaps in readiness for one of Sunsail’s Flotilla or Yacht Charter holidays in the UK or abroad.
On a Sunsail Level 1 course, our fully qualified RYA instructors will take students on from a basic level of understanding and competence to a position where they feel ready to take on a more challenging sailing experience. This opens a whole new range of sailing destinations for you to choose from.
The RYA Day Skipper Theory Course is a fully comprehensive, 5 day, shore-based course, available only in the UK. It is designed to equip yachtsmen with the insight and skills to enable them to make good decisions and stay safe at sea and provides them with an official RYA qualification.
The Sunsail International Certificate of Competence Assessment is an internationally recognized certificate, providing documentary assurance from one government to another that the holder meets an agreed level of competence.
From our base at Vounaki, the Club 5 Day RYA day skipper combines five days sailing (includung a night sail) with nights staying in the Club hotel, rather than on board the yacht. This option is aimed at beginners and will allow you to go on a flotilla on your second week at Vounaki.
