CHILL OUT ON A CRUISE  – Book for a executive catamaran or yacht charters within the Langebaan Lagoon or along the beautiful West Coast.

 

We are a RYA & SAS accredited sail training school based in Langebaan on the West Coast of South Africa, in the only RYA approved waters in SA.

We offer approved RYA and SAS sailing courses, from 2 days “Start Yachting” all the way up to Yachtmaster Ocean, as well as SAS recognised inland waters courses. In addition to the conventional keelboat courses we are the only sailing school in South Africa offering catamaran sail training on our Wildcat 35, or as Own Boat Tuition.

For those who prefer to just enjoy the cruise we also provide bareboat and skippered charters from 2 hours to however long you want to be out there, either on the sheltered waters of the Langebaan Lagoon or along the West Coast.

 All of us at Sail Due South are dedicated to giving the best training and service possible. Being a small school we are committed to individual sailing solutions rather than fitting everybody into a main stream course schedule.
