Available with a skipper and hostess crew, you can share or privatise a cabin, or even the whole boat, while taking part in the manoeuvres for an active top-of-the-range cruise in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, across the Atlantic…
CARIBBEAN :
The southern Caribbean, between Martinique and Grenada, is one of the best sailing areas. The wind is steady, from 15 to 20 knots. The sea is warm. The beaches of white sand and blue water look like paradise. We visit Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, the Grenadines and all the islands in the region. The 7-day cruise allows you to visit the region quickly.
The catamaran is available in the Caribbean for 7-day cruises.
Cruises will take you from Le Marin to Martinique, either northwards (Dominica, Les Saintes, Guadeloupe, Antigua, Barbuda, Saint Martin, Saint Barthélémy, Anguilla,…) or southwards (Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, the Grenadines, the Tobago Cays, Trinidad,…).
At the end of the season in the West Indies, we’re bringing you back to Europe! Sail across the Atlantic with us!

LEFKADAS TO LAVRIO
GREECE: May to September
This is one of the best sailing and cruising areas in the world. The scenery is magnificent.The wind is often present.
The sea is crystal-clear and warm. And there’s so much more to do, from visiting archaeological sites or sumptuously decorated Orthodox temples, to sampling simple, wholesome Mediterranean cuisine in the “taverna” restaurants on the beach.
We offer several cruise options and can tailor your cruise according to what you want and visit the islands that make you dream.
THE SPORADES :
The Sporades have a lot to offer. These tree-covered islands are surrounded by crystal-clear blue waters.
THE SARONIC GULF :
The southwest of Athens offers many possibilities. This region is more protected from the Meltem and has much to offer. Leaving Lavrio, the temple of Poseidon at Sounio reminds us that our ancestors always chose the best places to build temples to their gods. Sounio is one of the most impressive, built right on the edge of the cliff.
THE SOUTHERN CYCLADES :
The Cyclades archipelago is the largest in Greece. Southeast of Athens, it has been at the center of the seas crossed by merchants and warriors since the dawn of time.
Remains of these ancient civilizations can be found on the islands and under the sea.Today, it is crossed by large ships entering and leaving the Black Sea, passing through the Doro Strait between the high mountains of Evia and Andros.
Most of the time, the wind is from the north, the Meltemi. Mykonos, Santorini, Milos, Paros… But the Cyclades are much more than that, with many more islands and hundreds of well-protected ports of call in superb coves or small fishing refuges. More often than not, a taverna is available for a cold beer and salad on the beach or quayside. The season runs from April to late October.
It’s simple nature. It’s delicious food. It’s safe. It’s the Cyclades.
