Learn with us to navigate

Our great passion: the sea and teaching

The key to training, especially in nautical schools, is the trainers and the location. The school Julio Verne Náutica offers you the best training scenario in the Iberian Peninsula: the Rías Baixas. Train yourself in all navigation scenes and enjoy in safety when sailing alone.
