You relax or join in with sails and helm while the crew handles navigation. Up to ten guests; route depends on the tier you choose and the weather. 📌 Key Details Duration: 2 hours or about 4 hours (half day) Group size: Up to 10 guests Minimum age: 8 Skipper: Included on all tiers 🌊 What to Expect Meet at the marina named on your trip sheet for lifejackets and a briefing on deck rules and the day’s plan. Two-hour trips focus on La Concha; half-day tier add coastal miles along Gipuzkoa when wind and sea state allow. You may trim sails, take the wheel when invited, or sit back while the skipper handles navigation and harbour traffic. Half-days include breaks. Meals are not included unless catering is arranged separately. The skipper uses the engine if needed to keep the day comfortable and on schedule. Between manoeuvres the captain explains landmarks along the Gipuzkoa shore and invites questions about sail trim or harbour rules. Photo stops are possible when traffic allows, and you return to the same marina pier with time to debrief before you leave the pontoon. 📍 Location Day sails meet at Donostia-San Sebastián marina or, on some dates, Hondarribia marina on the Bidasoa estuary. Allow a short window before cast-off for lifejackets and the day’s route brief. Routes usually explore La Concha and nearby channels, with half-day tier reaching Gipuzkoa headlands when wind and sea state allow. Landmarks along the Cantabrian shore frame longer legs west of the city. ✅ Prerequisites No sailing licence required; the yacht is skippered throughout. Tell us about conditions that affect balance or stamina. Children from age 8 sail with a responsible adult. Pack non-slip shoes and warm layers for open decks. ⭐ Why Choose Us Skippered day sails are led by captains who also train PER students and club racers locally, so routes stay realistic when ferry traffic, summer swell, or light wind appears. You leave from one of the best-known bays on the coast on yachts matched to your group: Gure Aitxe for relaxed sightseeing, Beti Aitxe when you want a larger, more agile deck for up to ten guests. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Qualified skipper or instructor for the activity described Safety briefing and fitted lifejackets Use of the yacht for the booked session ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Meals and drinks unless stated for your booking Personal travel insurance ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### What is the difference between the length options? The two-hour option focuses on La Concha and nearby channels. The half-day adds more miles along the Gipuzkoa coast when wind and sea state allow. All tiers use the same booking request flow. You cannot mix different lengths for different guests on one request; everyone shares the booked duration. ### Where is the meeting point? Most trips meet at Donostia-San Sebastián marina below La Concha. We confirm the pier and check-in time when we accept your date, usually about fifteen minutes before departure. Some sailings leave from Hondarribia marina on the Bidasoa. If your tier lists both ports, message on Adventuro chat to confirm which marina applies. ### How does scheduled request booking work? You pick a date and party size on Adventuro. We check crew, tides, and existing sailings before accepting. Payment runs through Adventuro once the request is approved. If we cannot match your date, we suggest alternatives by chat or email. The total shown on Adventuro is confirmed when we accept your request. ### What safety kit is provided? Lifejackets are issued at the pontoon and must be worn as directed. The skipper or instructor covers man-overboard steps, moving on deck, and how to use grab lines before leaving the berth. The yacht carries standard coastal safety equipment for the activity. Tell us about mobility needs when you book so we can advise on boarding. ### What should I bring? Wear non-slip shoes, warm layers, and a windproof jacket. Sun cream and sunglasses with a retainer are useful even on cloudy days. Bring a refillable water bottle. Pack a light waterproof if you have one. Hard-soled heels and open flip-flops are not suitable on deck. ### What if the weather is poor? Sailing needs suitable wind and sea state. If we cancel for safety, we offer another date or follow the Flexible cancellation terms inherited from the centre preset. Light wind days may mean a shorter route or more motor assistance. The skipper decides on the day; we do not push beyond safe limits for the vessel and group. ### Are children allowed? Minimum age is 8. Children must be with a responsible adult and wear lifejackets at all times on deck. We are used to family groups on suitable boats such as Gure Aitxe for easier day sails. Tell us heights and ages so we can plan seating. ### Is transport included? Transport to the marina is not included. Donostia has bus links and taxis to the port; parking near the waterfront can be limited in peak season. Hondarribia marina is served by local buses from Irun and Hendaye area. Allow extra time for luggage if you are joining a multi-day cruise. ### Which languages do crew speak? Briefings are given in Spanish and English in most sessions. If you need another language, ask when you request the date and we will confirm if an instructor is available. Licence courses may use Spanish syllabus terms for exams even when teaching in English. We outline what materials you need before the first practical day. ### Can I get seasick? La Concha and nearshore legs are often calmer than offshore passages. If you are sensitive, eat lightly, stay hydrated, and look at the horizon. Tell the crew early if you feel unwell. They can adjust seating and route within safe limits. Medication is a personal choice; we cannot provide it on board. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/03-Regatas-SnSn-velero-scaled-5.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 3 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
