The cruise

Spent 3 days learning sailing and had the best of times! Despite starting with zero sailing experience, Laurence had us confidently performing maneuvers and grasping the basics of nautical navigation by the end. Beyond the learning, we loved every moment exploring the stunning islands of the French Riviera - it was equal parts adventure and relaxation. Couldn’t recommend it more!

The skipper

Laurence is absolutely incredible - kind, thoughtful, and endlessly helpful. Very easy to coordinate with beforehand and made us feel comfortable, safe, and confident. A very patient teacher that made each day fun and informative. Would highly recommend!

The cruise

We already knew this sailing area well, so it wasn't a discovery, but always a great pleasure. We felt like we were on vacation, even though it was just a long weekend.

The skipper

For me, the aim of this weekend was to reassure myself, as I hadn't been back on a sailboat for 2 years. Laurence was able to reassure me, teach me lots of things, and make me realize that I still have a lot to learn, and a lot of experience to gather. For me, it was an exceptional encounter with an exceptional woman who knows how to share her passion for the sea. She has the simplicity of people who know and don't show it off. So we were both studious and relaxing.

Great cruise and discovery of the basics of navigation. The boat was well equipped and the navigation superbly organized. We highly recommend this experience.

The skipper

Laurence is an experienced skier who knows how to pass on her knowledge with rigor and kindness. We really enjoyed our 3-day tave with her and recommend her to everyone.

The cruise

It was a real pleasure to discover the Giens peninsula and the island of Porquerolles from the sea. Laurence, who knows the place like the back of her hand, allowed us to admire every nook and cranny🤩. What's more, the island seen from the inside is also a little paradise.

The skipper

Laurence is driven by the joy of sharing her passion for sailing and her region with us. She takes the time to understand the expectations of each participant, so as to meet them to the best of her ability. With patience and sensitivity, she helps you find your bearings on the boat and build your confidence in learning your skills. A wonderful human encounter we won't soon forget🤩
