Want a great gap year? Sailing in South Africa is a great option

A gap year of sailing in South Africa is sure to leave you with plenty of memories that you'll always cherish, especially as the Cape Peninsula, where you'll be sailing nearly every day, gives you access to two vast oceans - the Atlantic and the Indian. This means you'll have plenty of space to learn the techniques of sailing and a diverse region to explore.

 

 Our sailing programme is perfect for anyone interested in sailing, or possibly thinking about a career in the yachting industry. No matter what your experience level, our accredited gap year sailing in South Africa will gain you several Royal Yachting Association (RYA) qualifications and you'll work your way up to an RYA Yachtmaster Coastal qualification.

 

Of course, during your gap year, sailing in South Africa isn't the only thing you'll be doing and you'll have plenty of time to spend with the landlubbers as well.

 

Throughout your seven week yachting course, you'll be living in the heart of Cape Town with a group of other adventure seekers - who will be learning about sailing, SCUBA diving, surfing or photography. With them, you'll have plenty of downtime to explore the city and enjoy the nightlife.

 

And as the seven-week gap year sailing in South Africa part of your experience ends, another adventure begins. You and your new friends will set off together on a three-week guided road trip around the country.

 

You'll go on safari, seeing all sorts of big game in their natural habitats. You can also choose to have the adrenaline rush of your life as you leap from the Bloukrans Bridge - the world's highest bungee jump site - or try diving with sharks.

 

Of course, a gap year of sailing in South Africa wouldn't be complete without plenty of time lounging on South Africa's gorgeous beaches and you'll have time to reminisce with your fellow gap year travellers during evening campfires under the stars.
