All of our Clubs have onsite shops, stocking many everyday items that you may have forgotten to pack including; basic medical supplies, toiletries and baby products (food and formula milk, wipes, nappies and swim nappies).  Our shops also offer a range of professional sailing gloves, shoes, wetsuits, beach towels, clothing, sunglasses and snacks.

Money Matters…

At the beginning of your holiday you’ll be given a swipe card, which can be used to purchase drinks and snacks from the bar and other items from the shops and reception.  All items will be charged to your room and can be settled weekly or at the end of your stay. You can view your bill at reception any time.  Outside the Club you will need Euros for Greece, Turkish Yeni Lira for Turkey and US or Eastern Caribbean dollars for Antigua.

Scuba Diving…

If you have pre-booked any diving activities for your holiday you will receive an information sheet prior to your holiday commencing.  Should any health issues arise before your holiday commences, it is advisable to bring a medical certificate from your GP stating that you are fit to dive.  It’s also worth checking that your travel insurance covers you for this activity.

Health Matters...

All of our Clubs have staff trained to RYA basic First Aid standard and local doctors are available if further medical assistance is required.
