Cross-communication: Teachers and students from different countries spend a week immersed in a nautical environment, exploring marine science concepts through engaging activities like kayaking, SUP, and sailing.
Just as scientists share findings through conferences and journals, the Erasmus Maris week fosters a similar environment among participating schools. Schools share their experiences, insights, and challenges, creating a dynamic community of learners. We even invite expert scientists to these sessions for invaluable feedback!

The sailboat has a strong power of attraction over youth because it conveys an ecological message and produces a feeling of freedom and adventure. The practice of sailing helps developing values such as rigour and team spirit and provides practical learning of multidisciplinary skills. Besides, the marine environment around the sailboat is an open laboratory for studying life sciences.
