La Maddalena > Caprera Base Every Saturday in La Maddalena 1:45 p.m., on the Waterfront via Amendola, motorboat Apollo II departure with a CVC sign will transport students to Caprera (meet 10/15 minutes before). Before May 1 and after Oct. 31, the motorboat will be replaced by bus, same time and meeting point. Phone to be used only on Saturday of arrival in case of emergency: 347/6749599. If you arrive late, you can call a cab from La Maddalena (see contact details among Useful Phones - average price 23/30 Euro or more). The Centro Velico Caprera does not organize collective trips but reports the existence of a Facebook page dedicated to arrivals and departures so that participants can make the best travel arrangements. It is not recommended to arrive at the base bycar . Access is allowed only as far as the gate to the Precruise dock, from there you wait for other students to arrive by ferry from La Maddalena. For the duration of the course you will have no opportunity to use it. For those arriving by car it is recommended to leave it in Palau.
    The base has three settlements on the south coast of the island:
    • Punta Coda where initiation courses are usually held.
    • Refinement, where other dInghy courses or cabin cruisers usually stay
    • Pre-cruise, where the cabin courses usually stay.
    There is a CVC infirmary at Punta Coda.

When disembarking from the ferry, the students of each course are assembled and assigned a place in the dormitories. You will take possession of your sleeping place, dressed appropriately for the swimming and scuba diving test (dInghy initiation courses) or for the activity on the boats. You will then be assembled in the classroom to receive instructions from the Chief of Instructors (Shift Leader) and base staff.
There are individual safety boxes in the Punta Coda Initiation settlement. You will be given the key against a deposit of 50 Euro. In the other settlements there are collective safes. The school is not liable for the theft of items left unattended. Avoid bringing valuables or excessive amounts of money.

  1. Centro Velico Caprera is a sailing and sea school, not a holiday resort: attending courses requires commitment, discipline, a spirit of adaptation and acceptance of rules of behaviour. Access to the Bases is reserved only for those who are teachers or students on an ongoing course. Cars (which must remain outside the gate) or motorbikes, dogs or other animals are not allowed. Acceptance to courses is at the sole discretion of the School.
  2. Arrivals and departures must take place strictly in accordance with the scheduled dates and times. No responsibility is assumed by the Centre with regard to journeys to and from the Caprera base.
  3. You may not leave the base, even temporarily, except for justified reasons and with the authorisation of the base chief. Visits from relatives or friends are not allowed, without special permission from the base chief.
  4. Tidiness and cleanliness, which are essential in a community life, concern not only one's own person and personal belongings, but also the dormitories, the common rooms and services, the surroundings, as well as the equipment and facilities of the Base.
    Vital to the School is the care of the boats and materials.
  5. Sleeping after a busy and tiring day is a sacred right, so all noise in the vicinity of dormitories must stop at the hour of silence. Small radios, cassette players and the like are not welcome and their use is forbidden in the common areas. Mobile phones are also to be used discreetly, but must be switched off during communal activities.
  6. On courses with dormitory accommodation, pupils are not permitted to attend the female students' dormitories and vice versa.
  7. Safety is a dominant theme in education both at sea and on land: from the obligation to wear a life jacket to rescue and fire-fighting equipment. Everyone contributes to the work of prevention, to avoid damage to people and equipment.
  8. The Head of the base has the right to remove from the base any student who proves to be unfit for community life at the school or who is guilty of serious misconduct.
  9. The use of boats is permitted for the School's institutional activities. Any other use must be authorised by the Base Head.
  10. The CVC reserves the right to take any measures, including sanitary measures, that it deems appropriate or necessary, in compliance with or as a result of legislative and/or regulatory provisions to gain access to the base and to attend courses.
  11. The rules reported above are subject to national and regional regulations for the measures, including behavioural and individual protection ones, aimed at fighting the spread of COVID-19, as well as those set out in the document "Behavioural rules for COVID-19 emergency" available for consultation. AT THIS LINKwhich is to be considered a substantial part of the present Code of Conduct.
    Oltre ai telefoni personali, per mettersi in contatto con gli allievi, da maggio a ottobre, si può telefonare alla Segreteria di La Maddalena (0789/738529). Non è consentito usare i telefoni cellulari in barca o durante le lezioni a terra. Il loro uso è consentito solo nei momenti liberi.
    Tutti gli allievi partecipano alle attività comuni (distribuzione dei pasti, pulizia della mensa, dei dormitori e dei servizi, aiuto in veleria e sui gozzi). Ciò aiuterà ad acquisire la mentalità della vita in comune su una barca dove tutto l’equipaggio contribuisce alle attività di bordo. Per un giorno, nei corsi settimanali, o due giorni, nei corsi quindicinali, ogni allievo viene impiegato nella “comandata”.

    In the case of food preferences, on the other hand, there may not be a dedicated meal, but one may choose the food genre, from those available, that is compatible with the intolerance as long as it is promptly reported and documented at the time of registration.
    Si raccomanda di portare il tesserino personale dell’ASL. A Caprera esiste un’infermeria. Nel caso sia necessario il trasferimento in un ospedale a La Maddalena o ad Olbia l’allievo dovrà pagare il mezzo per il rientro alla Base.
