Medina Valley Centre

Our activities are all designed to be accessible for groups of all ages and backgrounds. Through the booking process we will discuss with you what your group requires and tailor-build a program to suit your needs.

We have a wide range of activities available, including :

These exciting activities are usually instructed on a 1:8 ratio, with an instructor assigned to each group for the week. This allows each group to build a positive relationship with their instructor and enables us to provide top quality care and development for each individual.

Originally set up as The Christian Sailing Centre the founding Christian ethos is still strong to this day. This gives us our passion to provide top quality education as well as a positively developmental environment where young people feel they are valued for who they are.
Every group that comes to the Centre has a dedicated hosting team to look after you after the work of the day is done and in the mornings for the start of the day and breakfast.
