If you’ve never been sailing before, don’t worry; One of the popular activities at Club Med Bintan is our sailing group lessons. These lessons run for six days a week, and it’s recommended that you attend all the lessons so that you can learn to handle a sailboat properly. During lessons, learners will be exposed to a variety of sailing skills including recognising and controlling winds, manoeuvring a boat whether as part of a team or alone, managing speed to ensure stability, and much more. The boats are included in the lessons so you don’t need to actually have one, and these lessons are open to those above 11 years old for the adult-level classes. Don’t worry if you have younger children though, because those above 6 years old can join lessons catered specially for their age group.
For those who are comfortable sailing without a guide, there is free access to an area where you can sail on your own. Boats are available for your use, and children above 8 years old can sail while accompanied by an adult. Those above 16 years of age can sail unaccompanied if desired. Enjoy the waves the seas of Bintan have to offer and make it an extra special trip!
