RYA Training


For all ages, abilities and goals. RYA training and qualifications are known and respected worldwide.

The highest standards are offered by Grenada Bluewater Sailing. Everything you need to begin or continue your sailing tuition is here, whether you would like to be a recreational boater or a sailing industry professional.

RYA training is forward thinking and designed for whatever level of skill, professionalism and knowledge you want to achieve. The Royal Yachting Association has been established for over 130 years, but their training approach is fresh and innovative. RYA courses are continually developed to take into account the dynamic world of boating.

“Yacht sailing is extremely diverse and there are opportunities for everyone to participate. Take the family cruising in warm climates, explore far flung remote places with friends or try your hand at yacht racing. One day you may be sailing offshore surrounded by dolphins and the next you could be anchored in a secluded bay, eating freshly caught fish for lunch. There is no sport that offers a greater variety of emotions, experiences, destinations and social opportunity” – The RYA.

The RYA works closely with worldwide Governments and official sailing organisations. The responsibility for issuing certificates of competence has been granted by the British Government through the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), an agency of the British Department of Transport.
