Your possible stops during this cruise
From Bénodet, head for the Glénan Islands! Embark on a magical weekend at sea.
You'll be surprised and amazed by this jewel of Finistère, often compared to the Caribbean for its turquoise waters. you'll be amazed and amazed by this jewel of the Finistère region, often compared to the Caribbean for its turquoise waters.
Aperitifs and meals are served on board or on the island of your choice.
I prepare them according to your wishes and any food allergies or intolerances. I use local, seasonal produce.
The weekend's program includes swimming, hiking, fishing, lounging... just one word of advice: disconnect! Depending on weather conditions, Saturday's stopover may be modified, and you'll discover Loctudy, Concarneau or Port la Forêt, to make your stomachs less sensitive than on the archipelago's anchorages.
Over the trip, you'll have the opportunity to hone your sailing skills through a hands-on, immersive approach.
Learn to handle sails, discovering the different types and their specificities.
Master navigation techniques and explore nautical charts to orient yourself with confidence, while understanding the importance of currents and winds.
You can also try your hand at stand-up paddling or finboarding. Eric has all the equipment on board. For the more adventurous, why not try your hand at scuba diving?
Skippair's little tip: at Les Glénan, relax and unwind! In the atmosphere of a West Indian lagoon, a change of scenery is guaranteed. The archipelago is also a protected natural area. A magnificent getaway.

Great weekend with our captain Eric. Great atmosphere and great sailing discovery. I recommend without hesitation
Thanks for a great weekend eric
Super Skipper, who loves to share his experience, coupled with an excellent cook, the return to land is difficult :-).
Very good stay with a dolphin encounter to boot.
A timeless interlude between Bénodet and Les Glénans ⛵ This trip was a real breath of fresh air: you forget everything and reconnect with what's essential, to the rhythm of the wind and the tides. Between sailing, breathtaking scenery and a friendly atmosphere on board, it was an experience that was as enriching as it was rejuvenating. I left with my batteries fully recharged, and already wanting to come back!
A big thank you to Eric, our passionate skipper, who passed on his love of sailing with kindness and good humor.
Everything went perfectly, and our skipper knew how to optimize our destinations according to the weather, which wasn't always sunny. 5 of us in all were on the boat (2 couples + the skipper), and we each had our own personal space for the night, although the cabin was cramped. Meals were simple but varied, sometimes aperitifs on the thumb, sometimes dishes cooked on board by the skipper, and we didn't mind the shared washing-up. Several destinations on the program, with explanations on the history of the place, life on board, navigation, knots, cartography and personal experience. We're delighted with this wonderful Breton getaway.
Eric is a passionate sailor who knows how to pass on all his knowledge with kindness and is attentive to our well-being. He knows the Breton coast and its past perfectly.
the whole trip with Eric will be our best memory, with a special mention for the sunny Glénan Islands
Eric is a great listener and a great teacher. We had a great time aboard his sailboat, from the preparation of the navigation, to the maneuvers and the moments of sharing at stopovers! Don't hesitate, Eric and his boat make a great duo!
Great experience with Eric
Traversée aux Glénans, au top, format to be tested over more days 😎
Eric was very helpful in teaching us the basics of sailing, letting us take the helm or hoist the sails. Last but not least, Eric is also an excellent cook!
The cruise was superb! Eric's choice of spots, his teaching style and his adaptability were all very pleasant. Many thanks for all your discoveries, both geographical and theoretical, as well as practical navigation and even culinary.
Eric is very attentive to the comfort of his crew. He's very adaptable, and his educational approach helps us to discover the specifics of sailing at our own pace.
We enjoyed a 2-day cruise with Eric, our skipper. He was great with us and our 3 children (aged 3, 10 and 11), a great teacher, lots of patience and always in a good mood! He introduced us to sailing and showed us around the Glenan Islands. Despite the Breton weather, we had a great time!
Easy to book, quick response via the website. Skipper Eric is top notch!
At our request, Eric took us on a fishing trip to a spot that was perfect for young and old alike!
A peaceful weekend aboard this sailing yacht. Perfect meals, great sailing, great islands and great company. All good things!
Thanks to Éric for his generosity, openness, professionalism and good humour!
The Glenans deserve their reputation! It's beautiful, wild and welcoming, and it's a great place to meet other sailors!
I couldn't have dreamed of anything better than setting off with Eric on my first sea cruise! He's 💯% Breton, an excellent trainer, a seasoned sailor with 1000 stories and, icing on the cake, an excellent cook!!!!
Magical cruise with a skipper at the top of his game: explanations, teaching, meals, spots! Everything was perfect in an atmosphere full of humor and kindness. We can't wait to come back. Thanks again Eric!
At the top!
Good overall, just disappointed we didn't spend the night at the glénans, which is why we were going there in the first place. the return to concarneau in the evening was not justified in my opinion, especially as we left the next morning for the glénans, so it was a waste of time to go there and back. we would have liked to see a place on the glénans, which we asked for but didn't receive.
Nothing else to say the rest was fine
We had a great weekend. Sun and dolphins.
Eric was very attentive, we ate well and he was very educational, explaining the navigation and letting us take the helm. Thank you
Two fantastic days to the Glenan and then to Tudy Island.
Adorable, very educational and patient with the children, great meal!
Nice sailing experience. Bonus: nice meetings with Eric, our skipper, and the whole crew! See you soon I hope!
Thanks to Skippair for this cruise proposal.
Superb cruise in spite of a not always clement weather. Very good experience.
Eric is very pedagogical, he takes the time to explain the functioning and the course of the boat, he makes everyone participate. And he always takes care of the crew!
Unforgettable experience. Eric is a very good psychologist towards all his passengers. He is also a very good cook.
Thank you for this beautiful moment at two steps of the continent which makes us believe that we are at the end of the world and why not in paradise!
Great time spent with Eric for our 3 day cruise with our 3 children aged 8, 6 and 3. Eric knew how to adapt the navigation to the little ones and made us discover beautiful places: the Glénan, Concarneau, etc.
Eric has a long experience of sailing. He is very friendly and patient with the children.
We had a great time on the boat with Eric. We discovered the Glénans and then sailed to Port Lesconil and up the Odet river. Knowing the area and his boat well, we immediately felt confident and at ease with Eric. He also trusted us to take the helm and that was great. We found him very educational and passionate about the sea. We were able to meet a beautiful person and discuss many subjects. He took care of us in the kitchen. It was a very nice weekend for both of us
Thank you Eric for the great experience and your professionalism. I look forward to doing another cruise with you. Nice trip
Skipper at the top, very nice boat, succulent dishes, wonderful destination: a successful weekend!
Skipper at the top, pedagogical, funny and multifunctional: captain, cook and photographer ;)
What a thrill it is to sit on the deck of the boat to watch the starry sky on a night of shooting stars!
Superb enchanted parenthesis in the Glénan archipelago with idyllic weather, perfect organization and a few moments of grace of which only Eric has the secret ;-)
A skipper who takes care of himself, an excellent companion and a practical expert. We had a very pleasant time with him and will keep an excellent memory of this cruise! Thank you Eric!
First stop at Le Mouton with the picnic then sailing towards the glenans with a spectacular arrival in slalom between the rocks (and that Eric knows perfectly well!!) and the students of the Sailing School... A short walk on the glenans while Eric prepared dinner for us ,and beware the sausage of Eric is worth the detour leaves the beauty of the sites in a good atmosphere Eric made us participate in the manoeuvre in a very fun way we had already done some sailing but we still learned a lot
Thank you for this 3 days at sea where nothing was missing and where we spent some very beautiful moments with the family Mickael Emmanuelle Coline Anais
Impeccable
Eric is very friendly and very attentive to everyone
Very beautiful cruise with good moments of navigation, in all conviviality. Very good experience that I recommend.
Eric is a very good skipper who introduced us to sailing in a very educational and natural way. He involves us in the manoeuvres, cooks well, ensures our well-being and ensures that we have everything we need.
Have a great stay! Ideal destination for a family stay while reconciling our different expectations (fishing, sailing, beach, discovery of the islands...). To be done again as soon as possible!
Eric has been particularly benevolent and extremely attentive to our well-being. Moreover, he was able to adapt the stay to our needs (children aged 6 and 9) and introduce us to the basics of sailing
After a safety briefing and a few questions about my knowledge, we headed for this "mythical" destination of the Glénans, after a morning in the swell, we were able to see the beautiful colours and islets and receive explanations from Eric on the site. The weather was not ideal to stay at anchor for the night, so we headed for Concarneau, the next day we sailed to Loctudy to eat and back to Benodet. Eric's First 305 is very pleasant and contains rain gear for the hosts as well as blankets for the cool nights.
Eric is very nice, available and wishes above all that the team member of the moment is satisfied. a good swell being announced, he made sure that I was not prone to seasickness by proposing to postpone me if I wanted or if the weather got worse (Safety First!). Eric is also a good cook!
Apart from the very wet weather, it was two very nice days in a very good atmosphereVery satisfied
Very easy to access and fun We made it happen and it's great
Cool and relaxing cruise, no stress, just what we needed, just the weather that wasn't with us on the second day, quite windy under stormy showers, but that's beyond us... Beautiful landscapes; we didn't know the Glénan Archipelago, we'll come back!
A big bravo and thanks again to Eric who communicated his enthusiasm and passion for sailing in a very educational way, with a lot of humour, patience and good humour. delicious meals, with discovery of local products, Eric is a real Cordon Bleu and a perfect ambassador of Brittany. lively recommendations!
Very beautiful cruise in the Glénans archipelago!
Eric is a very educationalist, and takes great care of his guests
My best memory is clearly the red sausage dinner prepared by Eric, sheltered in the saloon, on Saturday evening after a day sailing under the Breton sun!
