“Great team, everyone ooozed enthusiasm for making our trip the best it could be. Super comms up to and on arrival. Outstanding sailing team, particular shout out to exceptional Shirley and Maddy impressed us too. Shirley put me at my ease to qualify as a skipper, her experience, little hints and tips made all the difference to my confidence. We loved the experience. Shame the weather was against us one day but it was Sept. We will be back. Well equipped boats, btw it’s not too stressful feeding your skipper keep it simple it’s about sailing at the end of the day. Little note - sleeping onboard is different if you like creature comforts bring a pillow/mattress topper. I hope the shower room will be upgraded before we go again, it’s totally functional and clean just somewhat dated. Thanks Beyond Beach for fab-u-lous holiday.”

“We had a fantastic learn to sail holiday in Kefalonia under the expert guidance of the lovely Shirley. We learned a brain full about sailing and gained so much confidence handling Escape. We will be back next year to join a flotilla and put our new skills to good use”

“We did the Learn to Sail course this summer with Maddy as our skipper and had a fantastic time. Maddy was welcoming and knowledgable and a great teacher. She was more than happy to answer all our questions, even going beyond the course content when we asked. We loved the coloured sheet set up on Leo II which made learning easier and we’ve already booked a flotilla for next summer!”

“We were booked onto the ‘Introduction to Sailing’ course - what a fantastic week we had in Lixouri! Shirley, our instructor, could not have been more helpful, knowledgeable and reassuring whilst teaching the ICC course to our son and daughter - 20 & 18 years old. If you are considering taking this course - just book it - as BeyondBeach offers a smooth booking system, thorough tuition and a chance to acquire new skills from an unforgettable trip. Would definitely recommend this friendly, welcoming and well-run company.”

“A great week -Maddy was the best skipper super calm and supportive throughout - so grateful she was there to share her knowledge (repeatedly) with us. The boats are a great size with enough facilities - you go with an open mind if you are staying on them to get them full sailing experience. However the use of an apartment 1 min away helps ease you in gently Location is just perfect - Lixouri is a wonderful place easy access to lovely bars and restaurants. Very short walk to supermarket and ATM from Marina.”
