Sailing trips with BYC
Going sailing with BYC is always a great option. There is a very good Mood and the instructors master a lot. For personal reasons I have had to unsubscribe from the subscription but if I return to the journey it would be with BYC without a doubt...

Great experience
I took a sailing lesson at Business Yacht Club Barcelona and it was an excellent experience. The instructor was very professional, patient and passionate about sailing, which made learning enjoyable and motivating. The class was practical from the start, with clear explanations about both maneuvers and safety on board. The sailboat was in perfect condition and the surroundings of the port and coast of Barcelona made everything even more special. I learned a lot in a few hours and felt more confident at the helm. Ideal for those who want to start sailing or improve their skills. Highly recommended, I will definitely repeat to continue learning.

Experience of 10
A spectacular club, both for private lessons and group sailing.
I have always been cared for carefully and quickly.
Frankly a 10 experience, I encourage anyone who wants to get into the world of sailing to plan any activity. I have
I learned more in private lessons with Victor than taking my P.E.R. "BOAT CARD."
Thank you so much!
