Alborán Nautical Academy was founded with a clear mission: to train safe, confident and passionate sailors. Based at Marina del Este on the Costa Tropical of Granada, we are the area’s leading nautical school with a 100% pass rate in all our PER examination sessions.
Licencia de Navegación: Your First Step at Sea
The Licencia de Navegación is the minimum Spanish qualification required to skipper a recreational motorboat — vessels up to 6 metres in protected waters. A perfect entry point for holiday sailors who want to hire a small boat on the Costa Tropical.
PER: Patrón de Embarcaciones de Recreo
The PER is Spain’s most popular recreational boating licence, covering motor and sailing vessels up to 15 metres and navigation up to 12 nautical miles offshore. The qualification of choice for anyone serious about their sailing.
100% Pass Rate — Every Session
We are particularly proud of our 100% PER pass rate across all examination sessions to date. Our method combines solid theory with extensive on-water practice, and our instructors adapt to each student’s pace. The results speak for themselves.
Next PER Sitting: November 2026
