We embark on a great ocean voyage from British Virgin Islands (BVI) to Baiona (Galicia, Spain), crossing the Atlantic with stops in Bermuda and the Azores. A tour designed to experience deep-sea sailing at its best and discover some of the most emblematic places in the Atlantic Ocean.
The voyage has a total distance of 3,520 nautical miles and a duration of approximately 35 days of sailing, combining long ocean voyages with strategic stops for rest, supplies and exploration.
This crossing is designed for sailors looking for a real open ocean experience: guards, planning, meteorology, night sailing and life on board, all in a safe environment guided by a team with experience in transoceanic voyages.
A unique adventure that combines learning, challenge and discovery, culminating in the arrival in Baiona, a historic reference port for Atlantic navigation.
The voyage takes place aboard our large, safe, solid and easy-to-navigate 22-meter steel Ketch. On board we will board a maximum of 8 passengers, each with their own single bed. In the living room, a large multipurpose day area where we teach meteorology classes, meals are served and a cozy room in our spare time.
The crew consists of an experienced captain and a first officer, both bilingual (English and Spanish at least), so that there is always a person in charge on duty.
On board we will teach (to all those who dare) the profession of the sailor, with the possibility of certifying your knowledge with titles such as RYA Competent Crew, RYA Watch Leader and RYA essential Navigation & Seamaship. In addition, there will be the possibility of making the necessary miles for the RYA Yacht Master and PPER qualifications.
This is a voyage for active travelers, we sail the boat together. We teach you everything you need to know along the way, from safety, life on board, navigation, etc., to steering the ship.
Prior coastal and night sailing experience is required.
Naturally, there will also be plenty of time to relax, read a book and have stimulating conversations with fellow travelers.
During the night we will have a guard regime. This way, we can continue sailing 24 hours a day and everyone on board the ship will have enough time to rest, eat and sleep. Nights at sea are magical; due to the complete lack of light pollution, you're not just stargazing: you can see the entire Milky Way in front of you.
Arriving in port after a long sea voyage is an unparalleled experience and a first impression on each crew member's personal ocean voyages.
