“We have just returned from a Learn to Sail course in Kefalonia with BeyondBeach. The team in the UK provided excellent support when I was struggling to register for the theory course with IYT. The practical course provided by BeyondBeach is fantastic value, with the price including the charter of the yacht for the week, an experienced Skipper on board for 5 days to teach you everything you need to know to achieve your IYT licence and a welcome pack that includes everything to keep your yacht shipshape. Shirley was a fantastic, patient and fun Skipper, who ensured we had a safe environment in which to learn. The yachts are very well-equipped and we were provided with air conditioning units out of storage when the daytime temperatures soared to 40 degrees, making our nights more comfortable. There is an apartment next to the Marina where you can go to have a shower, connect to Wifi and store items in the fridge. Most evenings we strolled from the Marina to the bars and restaurants of Lixouri. Shirley provided with some excellent recommendations. We also had a lovely night at anchor in the South of the island. A perfect week. We'll be back next year to practice our new found skills on Flotilla! This is a Company that truly cares about its customers.”

“What a Fantastic week of Sailing!!! From the minute we met Shirley, we knew we were going to have an epic week. I had sailed for many years without having any formal qualification, as a salty old sea dog, I finished the week with a wealth more knowledge, all thanks to our instructor Barry. Barry was excellent!! an absolute encyclopaedia in everything Sailing and Greece. His instructional techniques were admirable, taking his time to teach my wife the skills and techniques needed for her to complete her competent crew qualifications with confidence. Shirley, Barry, Mick and Babbi make a very special team at Lixouri and we cannot thank them enough for a fabulous week. We highly recommend anyone who is a novice or experienced to use Trek Adventures for an unforgettable week learning to sail. We had fab time and many laughs with our fellow yachtys learning to sail. We are looking forward to returning to Kefalonia next year for more adventures!”
