WELCOME ABOARD!
CEDENA Puerto Williams, contributing to the training of children and young people through nautical sports, in the southernmost area of Chile.
What we do
Club School
We are a non-profit organization that aims to educate integral children and young people by using the practice of water sports as a tool.
Since its establishment in 2014, we have formed more than 500 students between the ages of 7 and 18, who have learned not only to sail and kayaking, but also to overcome obstacles, work as a team and, especially, to dream.
“Seeing the children break the ice with their kayaks, rig up their boats under the snow and sail in the icy waters of the Beagle, is the most impressive thing we have seen in the nautical sector of the country.”
The CEDENA PW Team.
