What If I’m Not Joining the RYA Course?

Not everyone will be! There are plenty of ways to enjoy your time even if you're not joining the PBL2 training. Relax by the villa's pool and the comforts of your private holiday home, or we can escort you to a nearby secluded beach, with an umbrella, book and a champagne hamper, dip into the calm waters to be collected later on in the day.

Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, The Rib Safari has something for everyone and it's our mandate to look after the needs and expectations of every member of the group or family.
 

What if I already have my PBL2 Licence?

For most of us who have completed the PBL2 Licence, we still feel ‘out of our depth’ when a real moment arises. Experience is the best teacher. Our team of RYA instructors aims to take the possible disaster out of developing the experience needed to go it alone. For those who feel they need a refresher course can use day 1 and 2 to brush up on skills. For those who feel they can go it alone from then outset, a 2 hr assessment will be made before allowing your own adventure to begin.
Remember, our aim is to encourage your development within the safety of the RYA where there are no strongest and weakest members of the crew, just individuals with different needs and requirements.
