Tips if you are going to do Land Sailing in France
Sailing is a sport that originated in ancient Egypt, then in China and then in Europe in the Netherlands. It is a sport that is becoming more and more popular, especially in France. There are now several clubs and sports centres spread all over the coastline that offers this activity all year round, much to the delight of all adventurers. If you still haven't tried this fun and exciting activity, here are five reasons why you should go sand yachting in France.
1. Enjoy the beach in a different way
Sand yachting is a new way to enjoy the beach in all seasons, but especially when the weather does not allow swimming. Sand yachting is a good alternative to the usual beachside activities of rackets, kites, beach football, etc. You can enjoy the beach uniquely but above all, experience a new adventure that provides thrill and entertainment. For instance, the department of Seine-Maritime experiences fewer hours of sunshine compared to other French areas, yet the wind speed is much higher. A climate like this is perfect for an introduction to sand yachting!
2. Activity accessible even to children types
Sand Yachting is a very versatile activity and as there are different types of sand yacht vehicles for different kinds of experiences, it is suitable for all adults and children from 5 years old. You can enjoy this experience with your little ones and introduce them to an exciting discipline. Give them a taste for new adventures that will remain engraved in their memory and yours. It is time for you to pack your bags and go to the Occitan or Atlantic coast, to Normandy, Brittany or even Pas-de-Calais for your vacations. Have the experience of a lifetime on a sand yacht with your children!
3. A sport that moves the whole body
Sand yachting is considered to be a sport that involves and strengthens every muscle in the body. The engagement of the arms and legs during the entire activity makes the whole body move in perfect synchronisation while putting in constant effort. Indeed, to move the vehicle forward, it is necessary to pull on the ropes of the sail, but that is not all. The legs and feet must also be used to control the direction of the glider to prevent it from losing its stability. This activity also requires the body to be in balance to further enhance the steadiness of the vehicle, so the muscles are continually contracting. The physical effort is even greater when the wind speed is high.
4. Environmentally friendly activity
Sand yachting is a friend of the environment. It allows you to have fun and exercise without harming the environment or any existing ecosystem. Even though the vehicles have wheels, there is no risk of noise pollution, as they are quiet and do not generate any harmful noise. In addition, there are no greenhouse gases emitted from them and even less CO2. The use of wind as the only engine for progress is the main reason why this activity is very ecological. So as well as being fun and exciting, it will be in line with your values and social responsibility.
5. The ultimate feeling of freedom
Imagine yourself aboard the vehicle with the exhilarating speed, the sea air brushing against your skin, the wind cutting you off from the world, the cry of the seagulls flying over the coastline, and the sound of the waves. All this will allow you to get away from it all and release any daily stress you may have. Moreover, a feeling of freedom will invade you and make you feel emancipated from any negative wave that may exist. In your glider, all your senses will be awakened to give you the best possible sensations and cover you with well-being and tranquillity. A priceless feeling! So think about getting some.
When to go sand yachting in France?
You can go sand yachting all year round, especially on windy days. As the wind is a significant factor in making the activity run smoothly and perfectly, it is possible to do it even in autumn and winter. It is even possible to go on this adventure when it is raining, for the bravest and most daring among you. However, since the activity is done mainly on the beach, the best time to partake is when the tide is low. The instructors will advise you on the most suitable times for this. So, what time of the year should you go and discover this discipline?
