The Go Sailing Program is for those who are looking for a first sailing experience but at the same time wish to learn some basic sailing navigation knowledge participating in the handling of the boat and some rope work, fundamental for sailing.
The experience is quite similar to one of the first classes of the beginners course with a theoretical briefing followed by sailing navigation with the practice of some maneuvers.

Location
Oeiras Yachting Harbor offers access to an outstanding water plan. It offers modern infrastructure with restaurants, shops, showers, parking and boatyard all in a stunning location between Lisbon and Cascais.
Around the marina, you will find several high quality beaches, and ocean swimming-pool and a cycle path by the water.
Its strategic location at the mouth of the river Tagus allows you to experience the Atlantic or otherwise look for the more protected and tidal waters of the river.
It's proximity to Cascais and Lisbon (about 6nm each) as well as the quick exit towards the south for destinations like Sesimbra are also a solid advantage.
