Keen to engage the next generation, La Belle Classe Academy also offers a Summer Yachting Camp, an immersive programme organised by YCM every year. Open to 16 to 22 year-olds, with no prerequisites, this camp provides an excellent introduction to yachting. Over one or two weeks, participants learn how to drive motorboats and jet-skis, first aid, meteorology, nautical knots, safety at sea, and a wide range of nautical and educational activities. Supervised by professionals, they acquire practical skills and recognised certifications such as the RYA Powerboat Level 2 and Personal Watercraft. It is a formative experience in which to learn invaluable skills, gain confidence on the water and discover yachting-related professions.
