The Sailing Academy is run by Neil Ashton a South African Sailing Instructor Developer with many years of sailing and coaching experience and his team of sailing Instructors.
Sailors, with their built-in sense of order, service and discipline, should really be running the world.

Sailing is a Way of Life, not Just a Sport



A good certified Sailing Academy will be a whole lot of fun, often thrilling, thoroughly educational, and totally empowering. Expect your Sailing Academy to go beyond just teaching you the basics of sailing. The real value of a Sailing Academy lies in providing the skill, confidence, inspiration, and community that will serve as the foundation for a lifetime of sailing adventure.
