Nautical Challenge on your seminar

Make the most of the beaches of the Côte d’Opale! This is what we offer you in this Nautical Challenge. You will move with your group to discover the most beautiful coastlines of the Opal Coast! It is an opportunity to learn more about the fauna and flora that surround you, but also to try different ways of skiing.

Presentation of watersports teambuilding

Each session lasts about 3 hours depending on the tide coefficients and the weather conditions. You start with an introductory briefing with your instructor during which you learn the various basic manoeuvres and the safety gestures. You’ll go get your vest, paddle, suit. Then we’ll give you your boat. And then it’s off to more than 2 hours of discovery on the shores of the long beaches. You will sail along protected reserves, go to discover colonies of seals not too shy sometimes, a show on each trip! The icing on the cake: a sailing at sunset, an unforgettable moment and so magical!

For teamwork, choose canoes or kayaks. Each person has his or her own role: a helmsman steering the boat at the rear, the motor setting the rhythm at the front, the other people (e.g. in a canoe) trying to follow the rhythm of the front. It’s all about coordination, listening, timing.

After working sessions, come and enjoy the sea to get some fresh air through this Nautical Challenge.

Objective of the nautical seminar

These Nautical Challenges take place with limited number. It is possible to make rotations on several boats with small challenges but we prefer discovery walks.

All the activities offered are accessible to everyone and can be adapted to the group’s level of sportsmanship. No activity is mandatory, we offer each participant to participate. Swimming skills are essential to participate.

Here are our tips to optimise your session. Bring warm clothes (jumper, fleece) because on the seafront with the wind, the feeling of freshness arrives quickly. Wear proper shoes with old sneakers or even boots that won’t have to worry about sea water and sand. It is also always helpful to wear glasses and gloves to avoid splashing water and sand and gloves to prevent warm hands.

A waterproof suit and a vest are provided during your session.

Getting started is quick, so you can enjoy great sensations from the first session, safely. This gives you confidence and the desire to renew the experience.

A teambuilding adaptable to your expectations.

As soon as you learn how to swim, the various boats on offer are within everyone’s reach: single or two-seater kayaking, canoeing, simple stand up paddle or a giant version of 8 seats, pirogue, … the acquisition of the basics is quick and provides a great feeling of freedom. Observe the movement of the waves under your boat, listen to the seagulls snickering, feel the breeze on your face and even see seals (when the place is right)… Fill up with oxygen and sea air and enjoy the spray!

On each Nautical Challenge, we can offer you several options. We have “refuelling” breaks at the end of your activity.

The duration of the Nautical Challenge can vary from 3H to 1/2 day depending on the tidal schedule and coefficient and the time you have. It is feasible depending on favourable weather conditions (not too much or too little wind) and tidal times. They can be done year-round.

At the graduation we can offer you different “local” lots that very often delight the participants. In most cases, the customer chooses to offer everyone a souvenir lot that we can prepare in advance. A book by Karine Baillet on her journey, a sweet, salty lot or a symbolic object of your company that you want to share.

We work on the city of Touquet Paris-Plage but we can also work on other locations. Our teams move easily. We have already organised Nautical Challenges on several places on the coast of the Opal Coast but also Cabourg, Deauville, Bordeaux. We adapt to the terrain and your seminar environment!

At the end of each Nautical Challenge, we will provide you with a summary file bringing together the composition of the different participants, the programme of activities, as well as some souvenir photos. We can also provide, according to your wishes and your budget, a photographer or a capture to capture all these beautiful moments. A video editing of your Nautical Challenge can also be done.
