Your cruise

Set sail from Port of Horta

Cruise from the Azores and crossing to South Brittany aboard a 21 meter sailboat with crew. The idea of this offshore course is twofold. To reconcile discovery and coastal sailing during the first days of a little known destination, the Azores archipelago. To learn about offshore sailing with a crossing of the North Atlantic and heading for South Brittany.

Your possible stops during this cruise

You will embark at 8:00 a.m. from Horta on the island of Faial aboard one of our two Challenge 67s with professional crew for your cruise from the Azores to South Brittany.

The first 5 to 6 days will open the doors to the west of the Azores, discovering Faial and its neighboring islands of Pico, São Jorge and Punta Del Gada: marine mammals, stroll on land, tasting of vineyards... Anchorages in the evening to fully enjoy these islands and moor before heading to South Brittany. For those who would like to observe marine mammals, local companies offer boarding on semi-rigid boats for about 3 to 4 hours of navigation

Then it's "the big jump", 7 to 9 days of deep-sea sailing in the Atlantic Ocean, punctuated by upward and downward shifts, sunrises and sunsets under the starry sky of the Atlantic. Everyone participates actively in the smooth running of the yacht and in the life on board, in an active mode, supervised by 2 sailors who are qualified as Captain 200 Sailors and State Patent

You will disembark at the port of Lorient after 14 unforgettable days at sea and memories will fill your head.

Take the sea and discover what sailing is all about thanks to a crew fully available for you. Julia and Goulwen are here to share their passion and their knowledge with you!

A sailboat shouldn't depend on a single anchor as a life shouldn't depend on a single hope.
