Sailing, catamaran and windsurf courses at Trevignano

Trevignano Romano

Learning to sail on a lake means the shore stays in sight and the water never builds the way the sea does. The wind coming over the crater rim at Trevignano is still real enough to teach you something.

How the day goes

  1. Rigging a dinghy on the shore and finding out what each rope actually does.
  2. Out on the lake, tacking back and forth with the instructor alongside.
  3. Catamaran, windsurf or wingfoil instead, if the dinghy is not the point.

Sailing means capsizing at some stage, so you should be happy in deep water; private lessons exist if a group course is not your idea of a holiday.
