The Société des Régates d'Antibes is a sailing school based at Base de la Salis, Boulevard James Wyllie in Antibes, offering an equipped watersports centre, classrooms and video tools for teaching. Completed in February 2019, the centre lies within the Natura 2000 marine sanctuary “Baie et Cap d’Antibes - Iles de Lérins”, a protected natural setting that shapes watersports activities and highlights the importance of the maritime knowledge shared by the team.
What does the experience involve?
On site, visitors can take lessons tailored to different audiences, throughout the year or during holidays; the organisation focuses on passing on knowledge, sharing the enjoyment of sailing and helping participants become independent. Options include private lessons (in addition to craft hire) and teaching sessions supported by video tools; other packages and watersports are offered to suit different levels and ages.
What to know before visiting
Private lessons start at €30 per hour in addition to the cost of hiring the craft, with a minimum of one participant. The watersports centre has been open since February 2019 and its exact location is Base de la Salis, Boulevard James Wyllie - 06600 ANTIBES (Plage de la Salis), thirty minutes from Nice and its international airport. The school operates within a predominantly marine Natura 2000 site covering 13,627 ha.
