Coastal Skipper in Puerto Portals, Mallorca

Coastal Skipper is about taking command with more depth: stronger judgement, cleaner decision-making, and the confidence to run longer, more demanding days. At Balearic Sea School, based in Puerto Portals, 07181, Calvià, Mallorca, training is practical and standards-led, with coaching that sharpens how you think as much as how you handle the boat. If you want to feel calmer when conditions, timing or complexity increases, this course is designed for that step up.
