The expert's opinion

This trip is accessible to all levels. It is suitable for people wishing to discover cruising sailing, as well as for day sailors, or even those who practice cruising sailing and wish to expand their experience into longer voyages.

This trip allows participants to grasp the specifics of coastal navigation over several days: dealing with tides and currents, planning a route, preparing for a stopover, choosing an anchorage, and managing life on board. Everyone actively participates in maneuvers and steering the boat, within a learning framework adapted to their level.

As you sail between Saint-Malo and Brest, you will also discover some of the most beautiful stopovers in Brittany, such as the Île de Bréhat or the Île de Batz, while developing your autonomy and understanding of sailing cruising.

A wonderful first sailing experience, guided by the wind and tides. Iris and Mathieu are excellent instructors and taught us all the basics! We'd love to do it again on a different route to see a change of scenery.

A week on the Basile isn't just about sailing with the tides and the wind; it's also about immersing yourself in its incredible history, meeting its two passionate skippers who shared part of their adventure with you, learning, relaxing, and laughing with friends, and feeling a pang of sadness upon arrival because it's already over. It's a wonderful human experience to be lived and repeated!
