ISSA-certified sailing school and yacht charter based in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. Courses in English, Spanish, Polish and Russian. Training on the real Atlantic Ocean.
Marcin has lived in Tenerife since 2012 — long enough to know every current, every bay, and every mood the Atlantic can offer. He has devoted his working life to sailing and diving: a professional skipper certified in Spain, an instructor in recreational sailing and powerboating with the international organisation ISSA, and a PADI and SSI diving instructor.
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.
Good Skipper is a sailing club and a sailing school. The work of the club centres on bringing together sailors, captains and sailing instructors who sail around the Canary Islands and Tenerife. We are on friendly terms with other clubs and together we organise cruises all over the world.
We run a commercial operation, organising training for crew, sailors and skippers. Power boating as well as sailing. We work under the patronage of the international organisation ISSA.
We have our own boats. Two motor boats, 8 and 10 metres, for the power courses. A 12.5-metre sailing yacht adapted for ocean sailing. Which means we don't have to rely on poorly equipped charter boats.
We have our own classroom and teaching materials for students. We run small groups and individual training. During courses there is the option of staying on board our boat.
Tenerife isn't just a holiday destination. For sailing training, it's one of the best places in Europe.
The Canary Islands sit in one of the sunniest and most stable climate zones on Earth. Training runs year-round with minimal cancellations.
Marina del Sur opens directly to the Atlantic. Within 20 minutes you're offshore in genuine open-water conditions — swells, wind and all.
The waters off Costa Adeje are home to resident pilot whales, bottlenose dolphins and sea turtles. Encounters during training are common.
The ISSA Offshore Skipper you earn here is valid in Croatia, Greece, the Caribbean and 100+ countries — so the training has real global value.
Direct flights to Tenerife South (TFS) from across Europe. A 3–4 hour flight from most European capitals. Year-round connections.
Combine the course with a Tenerife holiday. Warm weather, great food and a world-class beach resort — training never felt so good.
