Guided by Aymeric Blin
Aymeric is a sailor and sailing coach with over 20 years of experience, including offshore racing, solo and crew regattas, and coaching on different types of sailing boats: foilers, dinghies, keelboats, monohulls and multihulls.
Safety-certified, STAPS university graduate and technical boat preparer, he adapts each outing to the guests, the boat and the Lake Geneva conditions.
Safety, weather and guest level come first
Every outing is adapted to Lake Geneva conditions, guest experience and available equipment. If the weather or lake conditions are not suitable for a safe experience, the programme is adjusted, postponed or redirected.
- Pre-departure briefing and professional guidance on board.
- Format adapted to families, couples, companies, beginners or experienced sailors.
- Safety comes before forcing an outing in poor conditions.
A foiling experience on Lake Geneva is one of the rarest ways to discover the Swiss Riviera from the water. With Sailin’Riviera, you can request a private discovery session around Vevey, Montreux and the upper Lake Geneva area.
Using modern foil boats such as Onefly or Birdyfish, the experience is lighter, faster and more technical than a classic boat outing. It is designed for people looking for something premium, sporty and genuinely different on Lake Geneva.

A rare experience on Lake Geneva
Foil boats are still uncommon on Lake Geneva. That rarity is exactly what makes this offer interesting: it is not a standard tourist cruise, but a more exclusive way to discover the lake and the feeling of flying above the water.
Rare
A distinctive Lake Geneva experience, far from generic boat trips.
Premium
A short, intense and memorable format for sailing and water-sport enthusiasts.
Tailored
The session depends on level, wind, weather and equipment availability.
Who is it for?
- sporty visitors looking for a rare Lake Geneva experience;
- sailing, foiling and water-sport enthusiasts;
- expats or international visitors staying around Montreux, Vevey or Lausanne;
- people looking for a premium gift or a very distinctive activity on the Swiss Riviera.
Foiling is not presented as an automatic activity for everyone. The required level, safety conditions and exact format are always validated before confirmation.
Onefly / Birdyfish: discover modern foiling
Depending on conditions and equipment availability, Sailin’Riviera can offer a discovery experience around foil supports such as Onefly or Birdyfish. The goal is not to overpromise performance, but to introduce the logic of foiling, the sensation of lift and a modern way to move across Lake Geneva.
How the foiling experience works
- You send your preferred period, your level and the number of participants.
- Sailin’Riviera checks whether the format is realistic according to wind, weather and equipment.
- A time slot and a suitable formula are proposed if conditions are right.
- On the day, the safety briefing and guidance are adapted to your profile.
Safety, weather and required level
Foiling is highly dependent on conditions. A session may be postponed or adapted if the weather, wind or safety conditions are not suitable. This is part of a serious approach: a good foiling session is better than a forced outing.
Price and availability
Foiling experiences are available on request, depending on the format, duration, number of participants and conditions. For a quick answer, send your preferred date, your sailing or water-sport level and the number of participants via WhatsApp.
