The navigation license in Spain is a document that certifies that a person has successfully completed a basic navigation training course. This license is granted to those who want to sail pleasure boats up to 6 meters in length and with an engine power of up to 15 HP.
The navigation license allows its holder to navigate in inland and coastal waters, as long as the length and power limitations mentioned above are respected. In addition, it also allows the holder to rent and drive jet skis.
It is important to note that the navigation license is not the same as the pleasure boat skipper title (PER), which allows larger and more powerful boats to navigate in inland and coastal waters. However, the navigation license is an ideal option for those who want to start sailing and enjoy water activities in small, simple boats.
