Theory classes + on-water practice on the open Atlantic — both Sail & Power Offshore Skipper programmes, year-round in English, Spanish, Polish and Russian.
Marcin has called Tenerife home since 2010 — long enough to know every current, every bay, and every mood the Atlantic can offer. Born in Poland, he has spent his career on the water: a certified ISSA Offshore Skipper and sailing instructor with routes spanning the Atlantic and the Mediterranean.
His approach on deck is what students remember most: patient, precise, and genuinely invested in each person's progress. Whether you've never touched a helm or want to sharpen your offshore skills, Marcin finds the right way to teach — for you specifically.
Both courses result in a permanent, internationally recognised ISSA certificate valid in 100+ countries.
Not a lake. Not a harbour. Open Atlantic sailing from day one — the best conditions to become a confident skipper.
Not a harbour, not a simulator. You're on the open ocean from your first session — the fastest way to become a confident skipper.
Get both ISSA Offshore Skipper licences during a single stay in Tenerife. No need to travel twice.
Tenerife's climate means no waiting for summer. Book in January or August — the Atlantic is always ready.
Max 2–3 students per course. Marcin adapts every session to your experience — beginner or refresher.

"Best decision I made on my Tenerife trip. The instructor was fantastic — patient, knowledgeable and passionate. Got my ISSA certificate in one week."
"I had zero experience. After the course I felt completely confident at the helm. Already used my ISSA cert to charter a boat in Croatia. Highly recommended."
"El curso en español fue excelente. Ambiente muy profesional, el instructor explicó todo con mucha claridad. El certificado ISSA es perfectamente válido en toda Europa."
