WATERMAN CAMP
Learn through sailing, grow through respect
At Kanela Sailing School, we see the Waterman Camp as a comprehensive experience of learning, socialising and connecting with the sea. Our Waterman Camp is designed to enable participants to discover and enjoy water sports in a safe, progressive and, above all, fun way, making the most of the stunning surroundings of Isla Canela and Punta del Moral.

Throughout each week, we teach our participants a wide variety of water sports, tailored to their age and ability: windsurfing, catamaran sailing, children’s catamaran sailing, stand-up paddleboarding, big paddleboarding, kayaking, surfing, an introduction to kitesurfing, an introduction to wing foiling… This variety allows each student to discover which sport or sports motivate them most, encouraging a varied and enriching experience. To this end, we design a weekly programme based on the weather conditions, so that students can make the most of the excellent conditions in Isla Canela. We organise a themed activity every week.

The camp runs in both the mornings and the afternoons. In the mornings, the session runs from 9.30 am to 2.00 pm and consists of two main activities per day, with a break for breakfast. In the afternoons, the session runs from 5.00 pm to 8.00 pm, with a short break in the middle for a snack.
We offer weekend camps, particularly during the spring and some in the summer. Please check availability and book if you are interested.
We also offer private camps for closed groups. If you would like a specific activity for a particular group, we can organise it for you. We will tailor the programme to your requirements, with the activities and instructor-to-student ratio of your choice. Please ask for a quote if you are interested.
The camps are aimed at participants of all ages, organised by age group and sailing ability, with the programme and activities adapted to ensure a suitable and safe experience. We always maintain a maximum ratio of 8 students per instructor, which guarantees personalised attention, safe learning and a high-quality experience.
