Hercules Sailing - Gibraltars RYA Sailing School

Come sailing with Hercules Sailing in Gibraltar, sail between the Pillars of Hercules and enjoy the wonderful opportunity of completing an RYA Tidal sailing course.

From Start Yachting to Yachtmaster Offshore and beyond.

Primarily Gibraltar offers blue seas and sunny skies with enough wind to keep the sails filled. Weather patterns can bring days of stronger winds when sailing is more challenging but under the careful supervision of our experienced Instructors you can benefit from practising your boat handling skills in stronger winds with confidence.

Our Intercontinental Sailing weekly intinerary covers our home base in Marina Bay Gibraltar, across the Strait to Morocco, the popular Spanish enclave in Morocco of Ceuta as well as mainland Spanish marinas.

Our Principal and Instructors are extremely experienced with many miles 'under the keel'. The Principal has completed 10 Trans Atlantics and has been teaching in Gibraltar, the Caribbean, Canaries and the UK for over 20 years. One of our regular instructors has circumnavigated the world and all are either current boat owners or have been recently.

The practical instructors are supported in the office by Mandy a Yachtmaster Ocean, who is qualified to teach our shore based courses (inc VHF radio). She has been 1st Mate on 4 Trans Atlantic crossings and has a tale or two to tell that helps bring the theory sessions to life.
