Detailed
below are sailing schools in Spain that provide training courses which follows the curriculum for RYA
courses. For shorebased courses look at the shorebased course listing.
Both the Start Yachting and Competent Crew syllabus takes no account of tides, hence the courses are the same the world over.
If the areas tidal status (i.e. tidal or not) is important to you, you should check with the school in question as Spain offers both options. The Balearic Islands are non-tidal whilst the Canary Islands are tidal for example.
With Ryan Air flying from a variety of UK destinations to Seville, this also opens up options for taking an RYA course in Portugal which is a c. 2 hour bus ride away.
