Oceanautic is a Benalmádena-based nautical school and boat rental provider operating on the Costa del Sol. The company offers a comprehensive range of certified navigation courses — including Patrón de Navegación Básica (PNB), Patrón de Embarcaciones de Recreo (PER) and advanced Yacht Captain training — delivered as flexible online theory or hands-on practical sessions.
Theory courses feature multimedia learning resources: animations, instructional videos and virtual exams designed by nautical professionals. Practical training includes mandatory on-water practice hours and a four-hour radiocommunications practical to meet regulatory requirements. For advanced students, the Yacht Captain course provides navigation practice aboard a Lagoon 38 catamaran, including night sailing experience.
Oceanautic also operates a selection of modern rental boats for leisure cruising. Available boats include brand-new 5‑ and 6‑metre models and a 2024 Quicksilver Open 605, with options that require a navigation license and options that do not. Group-sized rentals accommodate up to eight passengers on select vessels.
All offerings are delivered from the coastal base in Benalmádena, Andalucía, and emphasize safety, practical competence, and straightforward access to coastal waters. Course structures and rental descriptions are presented clearly so participants can choose the right combination of certification or leisure hire.
