I had a very nice and relaxing week with the Pirates. Yenzi does a great job as skipper and, despite the sailing and organizational stress, always has an open ear and time for conversation. Along with Yenzi, other Pirates crew members were on board who made sure that cooking, washing up, and cleaning up went smoothly. I've never experienced anything like that before. Simply outstanding! The pre-planned meals were always delicious and imaginative and even catered to me, a non-vegan. The boat has several upgrades and offers so many amenities that charter boats can't offer! Because the crew lives on the boat permanently, it's much more homely and lovingly furnished. I find little mementos of past trips everywhere in the boat, which quickly makes you feel at home. Overall, Pirates of Paradise simply puts more attention to detail, and in this respect, Yenzi and his crew are way ahead of larger providers. Definitely a reason for me to come back.

I booked one week with Pirates of Paradise for a sailing holiday and completely fell in love with sailing. My first trip was a transfer sail from Sardinia to Sicily, and I honestly had zero expectations because I had never been on a sailboat before. It turned out to be one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had.

Yenzi and the entire crew made everyone feel welcome from the very first moment. They are incredibly kind, funny, patient, and create such a relaxed atmosphere that I enjoyed my first week so much, I immediately extended my stay for another week to explore even more of the beautiful Sicilian coast by sailboat.

If you’re looking for a unique way to discover Sicily, or other destinations, I can’t recommend this enough. Sailing lets you experience places from a completely different perspective, visiting beautiful bays and hidden spots you simply wouldn’t see on a typical holiday.

What makes Pirates of Paradise truly special is their philosophy. They’re a vegan sailing company with delicious plant-based breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are prepared with so much love. Every meal was fresh, varied, and incredibly tasty. Even if you’re not vegan, the food is inspiring without ever feeling pushy. On restaurant visits, everyone is free to order whatever they like, which I really appreciated.

The company is also committed to being as sustainable as possible. They are plastic-free wherever they can be, and they even provide ocean-friendly shampoo, sunscreen, toothpaste, making it easy to travel more sustainably without having to think about packing everything yourself.

Another thing I loved was how inclusive the atmosphere is. Pirates of Paradise is genuinely queer-friendly, and English is the onboard language, which means everyone feels included no matter where they’re from. The crew goes above and beyond to make every guest feel at home, whether you’re travelling solo or with friends. I never felt like an outsider—I felt like part of the crew.

I came on board as someone who had never sailed before, and I left with a new passion. This is so much more than just a sailing trip or a holiday. It’s an experience filled with amazing people, unforgettable sunsets, beautiful anchorages, incredible food, laughter, and memories I’ll keep for a long time.

If you’re thinking about booking a sailing holiday in Sicily, Sardinia, or anywhere Pirates of Paradise sails, stop thinking and just do it. I would recommend this experience to anyone, whether you’re an experienced sailor or stepping onto a sailboat for the very first time.

Thank you, Yenzi and the whole Pirates of Paradise crew. I’ll definitely be back.

An absolutely brilliant experience! I knew this week was going to be great, and Sailormoon & the crew made it happen. It’s a real break on the water, with great food, inspiring people and a very peaceful environment. If you’re reading these reviews, don’t wait any longer to join them – they’ll give you a warm welcome ✨

Spontaneously booked the trip to Athens in 2021. We combined the whole thing with a road trip and I have to say it was the best decision we could have made! I felt super comfortable from the start. The group was open and friendly, we laughed so much, sang, danced and enjoyed the time together. On the first evening it felt like a new little family. For explorers and adventurers who want to meet new people, Pirates of Paradise is just the thing. Discovering a country from the sea side is a completely new experience. We'll see you again this year and I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and new faces. Beautiful stories around the campfire and a beer together at sunset on the sea - what more could you want? Best regards Dennis

Thanks to Pirates of Paradise for this incredibly great week and a vacation that I would consider to be one of the most beautiful I have had the pleasure of experiencing so far. From days where you simply spend the whole day in the sea and on deck in the sun, to unforgettable nights on board or on land with a crew that grows from a bunch of strangers to a small family within 7 days, it was all there ! I already miss the morning swim in the turquoise blue water, the breakfast and dinner together on board, the overnight stays in the most beautiful bays under the most amazing starry sky I have ever seen and all the conversations late into the night with a good glass of wine. With Pirates of Paradise you don't just book any summer vacation, you book memories that last :)

Pirates of Paradise is by far the most welcoming and authentic sailing trip provider I have ever come across. Everyone is welcome, and nobody feels left out. They truly care about sustainability and zero waste, and everything is completely vegan and feminist. Especially as a woman, I felt very comfortable and safe on the boats.

Our skipper Maurice was incredibly relaxed and taught us how to sail, which was such an exciting and rewarding experience. Meals on board are taken care of, and the volunteers, with the support of the guests, prepare delicious, balanced vegan meals. The boat is very well equipped and has a cozy atmosphere.

I felt completely comfortable throughout the entire week. A huge thank you to the crew and to Yenzi for making this experience so special.

The only very small downside was that sometimes it felt like nobody was entirely sure what the plan was, and things could get a little chaotic at times. Also, the advertised cozy pizza night, which was supposed to be included in the trip, ended up being a dinner at a rather unrelaxed restaurant, which was a little disappointing.

Nevertheless, the week was absolutely worth it, and I am grateful that I got to be part of this crew. I will definitely sail with Pirates of Paradise again!

Do you want adventure? You get adventures! What do you want "sea"? If you want salt on your skin, wind in your hair and a boat under your back, Pirates is the right place for you. I particularly liked the hammock as a place to sleep: one eye clink at sunrise and the next clink you'd jump into the sea. Hoist the sails and send off the mail. See you again on deck.

Sicily Trip
I had a wonderful time with Pirates of Paradise in Sicily. The crew was such a great match, was very friendly and everyone took great care of us. It was a good mix of activities on land and relaxing time on the boat. Everything was organized in such a way that it was easy to just enjoy and go with the flow. The boat is very comfortable furnished, so you immediately feel at home and can quickly settle into the group and get to know new people. Sicily is definitely worth a visit. This was my first solo trip and I am very happy I did it with Pirates. I would definitely do it again!

I've always been there with the boys over the last few years and I have to say that they were unforgettable holidays. Good planning and implementation, I/we were never disappointed. In short, if you've never sailed before and want to have a great vacation, you should take the experience with you here!

Volcano Route Italy I came alone, didn't know anyone in the group beforehand and it still felt like a vacation with good friends. Everyone on the boat, whether guests or crew, was super nice and uncomplicated. When we sailed off into the sunset on the first evening with good music and good wine, we knew immediately that it would be an unforgettable week and why so many people rave about Pirates holidays. Mille grazie and gladly again!

The trip with Pirates in Athens was simply unforgettable! The crew, consisting of such different people, grew together so quickly - we had a lot of fun, adventures and it certainly won't be the last time we sailed under the flag 🏴‍☠️ 🔥

Definitely one of the best weeks of my life with the Pirates in Sicily! The crew and other travelers made it feel like being among friends rather than a tour group, which made the trip really special. I loved the slow mornings and flexible schedule with a great balance between sailing time, group activities, and free time on land to recharge. You can also get as involved with sailing as you want and learn a thing or two about how the boat works. And the food on board is amazing too! Just keep in mind that it’s appreciated if everyone gets involved a bit with cooking or cleaning. Couldn’t recommend it more!

Extraordinary trip, with a special crew and unbelievable places. This isn't an all inclusive trip, it's a unique travel experience for cool people, who are fine with small cabins and almost no privacy. Even as a introvert you can connect to new people and an awesome crew.
Once in a life time experience, If you don't book a second time.

It was an unforgettable time in Italy for which I would like to thank you all very much! It was my first time there and my expectations were completely exceeded. The islands we saw were incredibly beautiful. My highlight: Stromboli. This was definitely not the last time I'll be there. I definitely recommend it!

We spent a week with Pirates on a sailing trip in Mallorca as part of an educational leave program. It was my first time on a sailboat, so I didn’t really know what to expect. :D

The boat was very well equipped, with cozy cabins and plenty of spots to relax (and even plenty of space for individual and group work as part of our educational program). We got delicious food three times a day — including a pizza night with a high-end pizza oven while enjoying the sunset. There was 24/7 access to snacks, fruit, coffee and tea — basically no chance for tired or hangry brains onboard. Everything being fully vegan, they were also really thoughtful about my slightly picky eater preferences (haha), which I really appreciated. 🫶🏽

And we actually sailed. The crew really gave their all to make the experience unforgettable for everyone. They even sacrificed a full night of sleep to sail us from Cabrera to the north of Mallorca so we could wake up in crystal clear turquoise water and spend the next days learning and swimming in beautiful bays. Even when the sea and weather conditions got a bit rough at times, we always felt completely safe and well taken care of.

One of my highlights was seeing a completely different side of Mallorca — pure nature, hidden bays and places you would probably never get to experience from land (we even saw dolphins).

The whole crew was professional, welcoming and just created a nice atmosphere throughout the trip.

There’s clearly a lot of effort, experience and heart behind the whole Pirates concept. It was a unique mix of adventure, learning new things and meeting new people which I’d recommend to anyone.

Huge thanks to Yenzi, Mara and the whole crew 🤍⛵

I spent a week sailing through Greece with Pirates of Paradise and I loved it so so much. Everyone was so kind and we really grew close as a group, even though I didn't know anybody before going. Also, Greece is beautiful - the clearest water I've ever seen. 10/10 🌞
