For the less adventurous there are canoes and pedaloes and for the enthusiastic spectator sun beds, umbrellas and the beach bar are all conveniently located!

DINGHY SAILING

Dinghy sailing is a fast growing sport in the UK. The Mar Menor offers a fantastic venue in which to learn, offering something for everyone. Sailing the latest single-handed dinghies (one person) and under the watchful eye of your TEAM unlimited instructor you will quickly enjoy the benefits of learning to sail.

EQUIPMENT

TEAM unlimited offers a fleet of brand new Laser Pico single-handed dinghies. Robustly built in plastic and complete with a sail that can be adjusted to suit all wind conditions and sailor sizes this is proving to be the best "first step" in dinghy sailing. Buoyancy aids are compulsory and provided free of charge. Wetsuits, though rarely required are available to rent. A pair of old trainers to wear whilst sailing is recommended.

COURSES

A two-hour introduction to sailing course will rapidly see you in charge of your own boat. This course covers the basics of sailing the boat and turning around to ensure you can get back from where you started.(min. 2 max.) The more comprehensive RYA level 1 course gives you 2 x 4 hour sessions of practical and theory, providing a much greater insight into the challenges of dinghy sailing. (Min. 4 max. 6)

WINDSURFING

With warm, shallow water, the latest innovations in equipment and RYA instruction, windsurfing has never been so easy to learn.

WINDSURFING EQUIPMENT

Using Hi-fly boards, the carbon masts and sails made especially light for beginners the progress made by people taking up the sport for the first is incredible. For more experienced sailors we have a range of Bic Techno boards and Tushingham sails. For beginners we insist on the wearing of buoyancy aids, which are provided, free of charge. Wetsuits are available for rent. Participants must bring a pair of training shoes, which will protect feet and provide good grip.

COURSES

A two-hour introduction to windsurfing course is the first step to becoming addicted to the sport. This session will enable the beginner to raise the sail, turn the board around and sail away. The more intensive 2 x 4 hour learn to windsurf course helps you develop all the techniques required to allow you to sail around a triangular course.
