Boat Málaga: Bringing Excellence and Fun to Nautical Training

Boat Málaga proves that technical training can also be exciting and fun. This academy offers courses at all levels focused on recreational boating, committed to quality, a high standard of training, and a playful approach that helps instill a passion for the sea among its students.

Nacho Pastor, founder and head of Boat Málaga, has been sailing since he was 6 years old. He shares his extensive nautical experience with the rest of the academy's faculty, which includes professional skippers, and with Fernando Corredor, the chief of studies and a merchant marine captain. "One aspect that sets us apart is that we offer the possibility to continue enjoying sailing after completing their training, by facilitating access to a boat through an annual rental fee," highlights Nacho.

From beginner courses to yacht captain

Located at the El Candado port in Málaga, Boat Málaga has a fleet of five boats, in addition to modern and renovated facilities from which they conduct their classes, including remotely. "We maintain active listening with our students to continuously improve, always seeking the excellence and quality of our training," Nacho emphasizes.

Their educational offerings provide all the certifications related to recreational boating: from the most basic level, such as the course to obtain the mandatory navigation license for jet skis and boats up to 6 meters in length; to the more advanced qualifications, such as the Recreational Craft Skipper (PER) or yacht captain and skipper.

"As summer begins, we have a high demand for the navigation license course, with a very young audience who wants to obtain it to enjoy the sea during the summer period," Nacho points out. A title that is obtained in just one day, through a two-hour theoretical course and four hours of practice. "A 6-hour day that is a whole nautical experience, where they have fun while learning," he underscores.

Facilitating access to a boat

But Boat Málaga's activity does not end with its educational work: they also facilitate their students' ability to continue sailing after classes. "We offer boats through an annual rental fee, an option that allows sharing the same vessel among several, thanks to which they can enjoy sailing all year round at a very accessible price," Nacho Pastor values. A rental service for which their students have priority.

Thus, Boat Málaga contributes to the democratization of nautical activities, at a time when it is particularly difficult to access a berth in the ports of Málaga due to their high deficit and long waiting lists.

In its commitment to excellence, Boat Málaga always has new, latest-generation boats, renewing its nautical fleet every two years, thus providing its students with a comfortable and safe experience.

The exceptional weather conditions in Málaga are one of the main strengths of the academy. "They guarantee that we can go sailing throughout the year. Therefore, we have many students from all over Spain, who visit us to obtain a certification in autumn and winter that in other places is only possible in summer," Nacho highlights.
