Sailing with Emma in Greece was simply lovely. My aim for this week was to gain confidence, which I did. Thank you Emma! I cannot wait for the next season.

Alex

Thanks for the very effective yet relaxed teaching method you employed to make us understand and assimilate so much in only 5 days. I truly enjoyed the learning.

Tobias

I wanted to say that I’ve had such a great time with Cloud Nine Sailing. If you are even slightly interested in sailing, I highly recommend you take one of the Cloud Nine courses. You will be challenged and entertained but you will not be sorry.

Jeremy

I can really recommend this to anyone who really wants a great adventure. You can choose to help, to officially learn how to sail or simply relax. I can honestly say that I felt a lot better than I had for awhile after sailing.

Yvonne

I can highly recommend Cloud Nine Sailing to anyone who longs to be out on the water in a relaxed, authentic sailing experience.

Fiona

A really enjoyable, quite intense course – a big big thanks to the skipper Emma at Cloud Nine Sailing for a very well structured course.
