Just because you have kids, it doesn't mean that you have to forget about a sailing holiday!

After all, sailing is a team sport and the sooner you introduce your children to sea life, the better!

Of course you are not going to sail in the same way as you would do if you had  an experienced crew! But with a little bit of organisation and good planning you will not say “no” to sailing life! Just pay attention to the following key points and let us know what your needs are when you make your request!

The itinerary
you are going to choose is the key factor for a happy and relaxed holiday. You  should choose a more or less protected area with small sailing distances and well protected harbours and bays.  Timing could also be of concern, in order to avoid prevailing winds.

Sea sickness
Could also become a problem as children are effected more than adults. Keep the children in the cockpit in the fresh air and double check your itinerary to be sure that you are going to avoid all difficult points.

The Paralos team can assist you in planning your route and show you all the lovely places that you shouldn’t miss. Just ask !

Life jackets
are very important for you childrens' safety! Even if they can swim, it is suggested that you use them as much as possible….even on the dock since an accident can easily occur !

Netting
is also a good idea, in order to protect children while running or playing on the deck.

Paralos can supply you with childrens' life jackets and take care to place nets on board. Just inform us during the booking procedure about the number, age and weight of the children.
