Ses Salines & Fornells Bay
Travelling to Minorca is easy
Ses Salines

With over a dozen regional UK airports to choose from, travelling to Minorca from
any part of the country is quick and easy. Minorca is less than two hours away
from London, and Ses Salines is a 25 minute journey from the airport. Depending
on flight times, you can sail on the day you arrive and on the day you leave.
The idyllic and unspoilt bay of Fornells provides an outstanding sailing area
with a narrow opening to the sea. It offers an endless variety of winds and
sailing conditions for the expert, along with the secure feeling of land ahead
for the beginner.
Our specialist sailing and windsurfing centre is in Ses Salines, just south of
Fornells on the edge of the bay. It is a small, friendly sailing village away from
the tourist beat. Here life revolves around the beach, corner shop and local bars.
All of our accommodation in Ses Salines is only a minute or two’s walk from the
beach and sailing centre.
Fornells, at the head of the bay and a short walk from Ses Salines, is a small,
whitewashed fishing village, typical to Minorca. In summer, its harbour becomes a
popular overnight haven for visiting yachts and the bars and restaurants have
a lively evening atmosphere.

Here to HelpA Helping HandMinorca Sailing staff are here to make life easy for you. They are
always ready and willing to lend a friendly, helping hand. They
will help you choose which group to join to suit your sailing or
windsurfing level and aims. They will guide you to the most
suitable boat or windsurf board and sail, depending on your
ability and the wind strength. Our instructors busily rig and de-
rig your boats and windsurfers, and assist you in launching from
the beach and coming back in, every time you go out sailing.
InstructionInstruction from our experienced RYA qualified staff is thorough,
skilful and sympathetic, for beginners through to experts. Our
staff are specially chosen for their encouraging and caring
approach at all levels of ability.

Relax and Enjoy Minorca Sailing offers a flexible programme with as much expert
tuition as you wish. Join one of our small and friendly groups of
sailors of a similar ability. Your group will have your own
instructor who will help you improve your sailing or windsurfing
in enjoyable company.
Our first-rate equipment is there for you to enjoy. When you
want to sail or windsurf, we make life easy. The boats are always
rigged for you, moored in warm shallow water, a few yards from
your accommodation. The boards are in handy racks at the
water’s edge with a choice of the latest sails of every size,
already rigged for you. Our large sailing and windsurfing fleets
ensure that there are always boats and boards available for you.
If you prefer to just sit back and enjoy the sailing, one of our
instructors will sail around the bay with you and perhaps a few
others. He or she may take you to the coves at the head of the
bay, give you time to stop off and explore small beaches and
islands, or take you to the local village of Fornells where you can
enjoy a coffee break at a waterside café.
Feel free to take time off. Go for a swim, explore Minorca or just
laze in the sun. The choice is yours and you can sail and
windsurf as much or as little as you please.

barbecued steaks and bustling atmosphere. Most sailors
meet up here at the end of the day to enjoy a drink in
the beer garden which has a pleasant club ambience.
‘Hotel Port Fornells’, set just back from the beach, is a
convenient place to have a drink or snack throughout
the day.
‘Restaurant Ses Salines’, just above the beach,
commands an inspiring view over the sailing centre and
the bay, and is well known in Minorca for its fresh fish
cuisine and high standard of service.

mediterranean seafood, Fornells’ restaurants have a
pleasant quay-side ambience. You can enjoy eating in
the open air whilst looking out at the yachts in the bay.

wealth of fresh seafood.
Within 15 minutes by car there are many small country
restaurants, some tucked up in the side streets of inland
villages and some in picturesque, rural settings. They

suckling pig, barbecued meats and many other
interesting dishes to tempt you.

SailingThe Specialist Sailing CentreSailing with us is designed to be as varied and flexible as possible
so that every individual's preference and enjoyment is catered for.
We have an extensive choice of sailing boats to choose from. With
our large and varied fleet there is always a boat available and
you'll have the chance to try out the whole range of craft.
Whether you're a complete novice, a competent Laser sailor, new
to asymmetric sailing or an experienced racer, you can be assured
that we will help you learn new skills and improve your sailing
technique whilst on holiday with Minorca Sailing.
Sailing ProgrammeWe organise structured days providing you with group tuition in
the mornings and continued instruction in the afternoons with
the opportunity to race daily. At the informal briefing on the
beach each morning, we'll give you a weather report and outline
the possibilities for the day. Depending on wind and weather,
you may be sailing inside the bay, perhaps learning a new skill
like using the gennaker or a trapeze, improving your race starts
or perfecting what you already know.
Within the group sessions your instructor will use a mixture of
theory and simulator lessons, on-water coaching, video analysis,
and demonstrations throughout the day to enhance your
knowledge, sailing skills and racing tactics.
Every afternoon after the group sessions or race we offer
additional tuition where you can try out a new boat with an
experienced instructor onboard, or concentrate on learning and
improving a specific skill. You can also use this time to learn how
to windsurf or improve your windsurfing technique.
RYA CertificatesWith the help of our qualified instructors, RYA levels can be
achieved and certificates awarded, from Basic Skills through to
Performance Sailing, whilst on holiday with Minorca Sailing.
Tuition is included, however, the certificates and log books are an
additional cost.

Getting AfloatIf you’ve never sailed before, you’ll be amazed at how
easy it all is. Instruction on the beach and then afloat
from our experienced staff is thorough, skilful,
sympathetic and informal.
Most of our absolute beginners are sailing a single
handed Laser Pico in the safe, shallow waters by the end
of the first afternoon. We will introduce you to sailing a
two man boat during the week and able beginners often
progress to sailing a single handed Laser by the end of
their first week.
With a good ratio of instructors to beginner sailors you
can rest assured that you will always be looked after.
During the first morning on the water there will also be a
safety boat assigned to your group for rapid attention to
any matter which may arise. And Fornells Bay is
reassurance itself: warm shallow water, locked in by the
gentle hills and wooded countryside. Even learning to
deal with a capsize is fun!
Our aim is to help all beginners achieve their RYA Level 2
course whilst on holiday with Minorca Sailing, presenting
them with their certificate at the end of the week.

as the 2000s, RS Vareos, RS 100s, RS 200s, RS 400s, RS 500s and
RS 800s. Or you can choose to race one of our many other
asymmetric boats, in a handicap system.
Racing
Race Training If you have never raced a boat, our experienced RYA instructors
will introduce you to the rules involved and encourage you to go
out and compete. For those who have raced before, our
instructors have a multitude of tried and tested techniques and
constructive advice to offer, helping you improve your racing skills
and gain better results.
At Minorca Sailing we use a combination of theory sessions on the
land, on the water practice, video analysis and GPS tracking for
this training. The video we take of you racing allows us to analyse
your boat handling skills, and the GPS tracking device we fit to
your boat once or twice a week, provides us with information to
study your race starts and tactics. This useful feedback is
discussed during early evening group sessions watching the video
or GPS tracking system on a screen.GPS Tracking – Windward Leg

Children & TeenagersWe know that for the success of a family holiday, it is important that each memberenjoys themselves to the full. We strive to fulfil every individual need.
Safety FirstFor easy and speedy communications, our RYA qualified
instructors are linked by radio with the safety boat drivers and the
shore. You can be sure that we will look after your children at all
times when they are out on the water.
Children’s and Teenagers’ ClubsWe provide sailing and windsurfing for children and teenagers
throughout the season, with our full daily programmes and
activities operating in July and August, and during the May and
October half-terms.
Evening ActivitiesWith our enthusiastic team of instructors the fun never stops.
They organise many activities including beach games and quizzes
for children, volleyball and pizza night for teenagers, and on the
water videoing for all. Our instructors strive to keep your children
and teenagers happy and entertained throughout their stay.
RYA Stages and CertificatesRYA Stages can be achieved and certificates awarded whilst on
holiday with Minorca Sailing. Tuition is included, however,
certificates and log books are an additional cost.
Additional TuitionEvery afternoon after the normal group sessions, we offer
additional tuition at no extra cost. This provides our older
children and teenagers with the opportunity to sail some of our
more advanced and technical asymmetric boats with an
instructor onboard. Younger children may enjoy using the time to
try their hand at trapezing. Teenagers and children of all ages
may choose to learn to windsurf or improve their windsurfing
technique during these late afternoon sessions.
The children’s windsurfing groups, the Rippers (ages 4-7) and
the Vulcans (ages 8-12) run at this time allowing children to
learn and progress their windsurfing skills in a fun, friendly and
safe environment.

The Crèche(4 months - 4 years)Our qualified team of British nannies work hard enter -
taining your little ones 7 days a week. Their bubbling
enthusiasm and gentle nature ensures excellent care
for all those attending our crèche. With their creative
ideas and boundless energy, our nannies provide a
fun and safe environment in which your children can
enjoy their holiday.
We aim to maintain a ratio of one nanny to every two
babies, and one nanny to every three toddlers,
providing them with lots of attention and supervision
both in and out of doors.
The morning and afternoon programmes are always
varied and activities may include painting, paddling,
games and story time. We encourage children of 4
years and above to venture onto the water under
gentle, supervised instruction with the Pirates and
Mermaids group.
The crèche includes indoor and shaded outdoor play
areas, and is situated on the seafront by the sailing
centre and moorings.

Pirates & Mermaids (4-5 years)The Pirates and Mermaids group is for all our 4 and 5 year
olds, and their exciting, enthusiastic team can frequently be
heard sailing around the bay. Our carefully selected sailing
instructors encourage ‘safe fun on the water’, and make the
most of the short concentration spans of very young
children by varying the activities throughout the day.
Those who wish to learn to windsurf can join the fun and
exciting Rippers windsurf group (ages 4-7) which runs in the
late afternoons after the normal daily programme.
The Pirates and Mermaids’ programme includes expeditions to
beaches and islands around the bay, treasure hunts, exploring,
beach games and beach Olympics with all the other children,
and even a Mini-Regatta!
They may be sailing an Optimist or RS Tera with a friend or even
solo, or trapezing on an RS Venture. The days are always different
and fun, and activities are aimed at introducing and improving
sailing skills and confidence on the water.
The groups are small and well supervised with a high ratio of
instructors to children, making it easy to learn new skills and
quickly make new friends.

concentrating on developing confidence and new sailing
skills in a safe environment.
The Explorers enjoy activities such as sailing in Optimists
and RS Teras, crewing and trapezing in an RS Venture,
and learning to windsurf on one of our Starsurfers.
Our enthusiastic instructors encourage the group to
become expert explorers whilst on holiday. During bay

who want to improve what they already know, our

progression is to sail the challenging and dynamic 4.7 Lasers.
The exhilarating two person asymmetric RS Fevas are also sailed
by our competent youngsters.

Teenagers It’s great to sail and windsurf! With our regular
theory sessions, followed by on the water practice, it
won’t be long before you’re racing all over the bay on
the boat or board of your choice.
Beginners will find it doesn't take long to learn the
basics in the warm Mediterranean, while more
experienced and capable sailors and windsurfers will
find our extensive fleets and equipment, exhilarating,
challenging and above all, fun!
We have an abundance of Picos, Lasers and
asymmetrics including RS Fevas, 29ers, 2000s, RS
100s, RS 200s, RS 400s and RS 500s for you to sail

You’ll find a multitude of the latest windsurf boards,
rigs and harnesses to choose from, to suit all abilities
and wind strengths.
You can try your hand on one of our high
performance craft and we can arrange for an
instructor to accompany you on an asymmetric such
as the 29er or RS 800. You can also try one of our
radical single handers, such as the RS Vareo, RS 100
or the Musto Skiff.
A variety of activities are included in the day’s sailing
programme, such as destination sails and on the
water games, allowing for a great team spirit to
develop within the group. The group coordinator will
oversee all activities and will organise and provide
safety cover for all our groups on the water.

The Bay of FornellsThe bay of Fornells is a large unspoilt landlocked area which can be
sailed in all wind directions, it has a narrow opening to the sea and
little disturbance from tides, providing a friendly and safe sailing
environment for both sailors and windsurfers on all levels. To
increase safety we ask all sailors to wear buoyancy aids at all times
and helmets in single-handers in strong winds. With windsurfers we
suggest buoyancy aids are worn when learning as recommended by
the RYA.
Safety BoatsWe consider that our motorised safety boats provide the best safety
cover of any sailing centre in the world. With a fleet of Valiant 4.9m
and Narwhal 4.8m semi inflatables with 25hp and 40hp Mercury four
stroke engines, used for both teaching and safety cover.
Radio CommunicationWe consider that in any activity centre radio commu nication is
essential. Our safety boats are linked to each other and the shore
with IC-M501EURO radios. In addition to this our group sailing
instructors carry IC-M33 waterproof radios, providing exceptional
radio safety cover.
Safety Boat DriversAll the instructors using the safety craft are RYA qualified and in
addition to this we are a RYA Training Centre. So whether you are
sailing out at sea, taking your first boat out in our sheltered waters
or watching your children sail across the bay to a nearby island, you
can be sure that quality, modern safety craft, with qualified drivers
are always on hand whenever needed.
Boat SafetyWe attach 40 litre Crewsaver Mast Floats to the top of our asymmetric
masts. This reduces the tendency of capsized asymmetrics to invert,
making them safer boats to enjoy. We attach small polystyrene
buoyancy floats to the top of our Laser 4.7s, all our single handed
beginner boats and our children’s boats. In the event of a capsize,
these floats slow down the inversion process, making the recovery
quicker and easier.
