Europe’s leading sailing school

Freedom, experience, learning, sharing, teaching… and above all, positive emotions! The Glenans sailing school is Europe’s leading sailing school. The association was founded over 70 years ago in the Glenan archipelago.

Here, the sailing school is present on several islands: Penfret, Bananec, Drenec and Fort Cigogne. It welcomes trainees aged 12 and over, in cruising, dinghy, catamaran, windsurf and kitesurf. On this archipelago off the coast of Finistère, you’ll find complete disconnection, a simple life in an idyllic setting… To find out more about this association, visit www.glenans.asso.fr.
