Royal Nautical Club of Valencia

One of Valencia's oldest and most storied sailing clubs, the Real Club Nàutic de València has been part of the city's seafront since 1903, sitting right in the heart of the Port of Valencia. You can sign up for sailing courses, try paddle surfing or kayaking, or just soak up the old-school Mediterranean maritime atmosphere that the newer marinas in town simply can't replicate. It's also well-placed for exploring Valencia's beaches and the wider port area, which hosted the America's Cup back in 2007.
