A day at Zeilschool De Kikkert is like a legendary story in which you play the lead role! The day begins with the sun (and the sweet voices of the shore team) waking you up, after which you join us for a delicious breakfast. Then we hit the water with your friends and our most experienced instructors.
We go out on the water in challenging boats and give lessons that match your level and individual sailing goals. We not only choose fixed courses, but also regularly explore the entire lake for an extra challenge. During the lunch break you can warm up with a tasty snack from our shore team, and in the afternoon it's time to further develop your sailing skills. We regularly challenge each other in exciting competitions.
At the end of the sailing day, a delicious 'after sail bite' is waiting for you. Then there is time for well-deserved relaxation until dinner, where you can enjoy a pleasant atmosphere and make new friends. And then the evening has yet to begin!
From delicious Mexican dinners to banging discos, our team ensures that the evenings are just as legendary as the days on the water. We promise that you will not only take your sailing to the next level, but also make friends and create memories that will last a lifetime. 🌊⛵🎉
