Description

We are a sailing school and bar-restaurant located in Salento, a region in southeastern Italy, specifically in Santa Maria di Leuca.
We offer sailing lessons for both children and adults.
Our activities include weekly sailing courses, as well as sailing camps for kids in June and July.
We have always loved sailing and have spent our entire lives around the sea and boats. For us, it’s all about having fun!
From april to october our bar-restaurant is also open, offering seafood cuisine, a wide variety of beers, and wines.
A fantastic place to enjoy good music, eat, and drink in good company. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
For many years we have hosted people from different countries. We love improving our English and enjoy a cultural exchange with everyone who wants to spend some time with us and learn the Italian language and culture. More than 30 people have stayed with us at our sailing school through Workaway.
At first we offered only accommodation and food, but when we realized that our guests really wanted to give us a hand, we decided to offer a payment to everyone, according to their skills.
In their free time, in agreement with the instructors, they also have the chance to learn how to sail.
Everyone arrives as a Workawayer, but leaves as a good friend. -
