NAVIGATION COURSES
We've partnered up with Silva Navigation School to provide a selection of all-inclusive Bronze and Silver navigation courses throughout the year. The Silva Navigation instructors follow the National Navigation Award Scheme (NNAS) syllabus, providing a structured approach to learning navigation skills. To complement the navigation courses, we provide comfortable, en suite accommodation, full catering over the course of the weekend and access to a licensed bar in the evenings.
