Activities
Morning conditions are generally good for waterskiing and by the afternoon, the wind usually picks up to a fresh force 4. In light morning winds with our expert tuition, novices will soon be setting sail solo. Afternoons offer exciting and challenging conditions for improvers and adventurous beginners, who will enjoy the wide range of boats and excellent choice of boards for all levels and conditions. For less confident sailors, there are exhilarating rides with our instructors aboard Dart 16 catamarans or the chance to explore the surrounding coastline by kayak. Alternatively, there is plenty of snorkelling kit for you to borrow and explore the underwater world.
Back on shore, our tennis coach will be offering group sessions to brush up on rusty technique or there is plenty of time to enjoy an informal game. During the cooler hours, join one of our guided bike rides to explore the local area on a variety of routes to suit all abilities, or join in with a fitness class. There’s always something gentle on offer to appeal to less energetic tastes. Relax by the pool, take a refreshing dip, play a game of boules or indulge in an aromatherapy massage.

About Neilson
We've been around for around 25 years. We started as two separate companies, one providing top-end ski holidays and the other taking people sailing in Greece. For around two decades we became better and better at putting together holidays, one company doing fun things in the snow, the other having adventures in the Med. Then, in 1999, Thomas Cook, who owned both companies, decided that it would make sense for us to join together. That was when the famous orange logo appeared, and Neilson as we know it came into existence.
