Your Home at Sea — Where Your License Comes Alive

Have you recently completed your skipper course and want to keep your skills sharp with regular sea time? Looking to log hundreds of verified nautical miles? Or perhaps you are a local or a visiting skipper in Cyprus wanting to enjoy stress-free recreational sailing with family and friends?

The Vardi Vela Sailing Club at Larnaca Marina is built for you. We have created an exclusive community of sailors that bridges professional skill maintenance, regular sea-time logging and absolute freedom on the water — without the overheads, maintenance and hassles of boat ownership.

Strictly Exclusive: Capped at 25 Members Only

To guarantee maximum boat availability, scheduling flexibility and uncompromised comfort for every member, our club membership is strictly capped at 25 members per year. Keeping our roster small ensures our fleet is ready when you are.

Our Club Fleet

All club vessels comply with strict maritime safety regulations, are maintained by our professional school crew, and are berthed at Larnaca Marina.
