Getting started with sailing

The camp is carried out in Masuria on the Pluszne Wielkie Lake, over which the resort is picturesquely located, and the waters of the lake are classified as the first (highest) class of purity (additionally covered by the quiet zone). Shielded from waves and violent squalls, the Great Plush Lake creates ideal conditions for safe sailing. ⛵️Participants are always on the water in life jackets with full protection of instructors on omega yachts and lifeboats with children. Each Participant will spend approximately 20 hours sailing. Please note that in case of inappropriate conditions (e.g. too strong or too weak wind), this number may change. The decision is made each time by the instructor. ⛵️Safety - we attach great importance to making our Participants feel safe on the water, not afraid of water, tippers or wind. Therefore, participants will learn how to safely navigate the yacht, how to behave in unusual situations, during squalls, as well as what to do if the yacht capsizes and how to avoid it. This will not only be theoretical knowledge. Children under the supervision of the Instructor will specially "make mushrooms" to see for themselves that such situations happen and are safe.
