Welcome to our C-MASTERS International Sailing School in Nieuwpoort

C-MASTERS International Sailing School is recognised by the Royal Yachting Association for RYA practical sail cruising courses in Nieuwpoort at the Belgian coast.

We have chosen this location as it is ideally positioned to provide our RYA training courses and Experience Builder courses to anyone who would like to expand their horizon and learn offshore sailing at the North Sea. Our courses are offered in close cooperation with our partner and agent KWADRANT. We work with groups of no more than 4 participants at this location.

With several coastal ports, miles of coastline, sandbanks, buoys, recreational and commercial shipping and being located at the largest marina of Europe, the Belgian coast is a fantastic environment to build up your skills and become a solid coastal sailor.

At the same time, it's just a day sail away to get to France, the Netherlands or cross the North Sea towards England. Excellent for any of our students with ambitions to start making long distance offshore voyages.

Good reasons to choose for a training from our Nieuwpoort location
