Your Crew

Meet the Crew

Skipper Cathy at the helm

Every trip is led by Cathy, an experienced, licensed skipper who knows these waters inside out — with years of sailing experience across the Mediterranean and beyond, she'll make sure you have a memorable day on the water.

Where possible we will always have an extra crew member, to accompany us and to assist with anything that may be needed on board.

We're multilingual — between us, we speak English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Polish and Afrikaans. 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 🇮🇹 🇩🇪 🇵🇱 🇿🇦

Where We Go

Highlights Along the Way

We always seek out the most beautiful and quiet places — here's a flavour of what we like. The exact route is decided by the skipper on the day, based on weather and how much time you have.
