Find your next adventure
Seven days, max 10 guests, two owned boats and no hidden costs. Whether you are after wild coastlines, hidden coves or new connections – we sail to where the wind takes us and handle everything along the way. Pick your destination and come as you are.
Destinations
We sail along Europe’s most beautiful coastlines, exploring Italy, Portugal, Montenegro, Albania and other handpicked routes across the Mediterranean. Each trip brings its own charm and highlights, from quiet bays and lively harbor towns to hidden beaches you won’t find in any guidebook. We keep our plans flexible, following the wind and choosing the best spots for the day.

Activities
We believe that the best adventures happen when you step off the boat and explore the world around you. Every journey we offer is more than just sailing; it’s a mix of exciting on-board experiences and unforgettable land adventures. While not every activity is available on every Trip (since it depends on the country and surrounding area) we ensure that we cover a variety of them during each journey, and they’re all included in the price.
