Your possible stops during this cruise

This program is subject to weather conditions, tides and currents.

Day 1: Boarding between 7pm and 9pm in Barneville-Carteret. Meet Thierry and the crew who will accompany you for this week in Les Scilly. Enjoy a free evening before spending your first night on board.

Day 2: First heading north to Guernsey. We'll probably head for St Peter's Port, where Victor Hugo lived. An opportunity to enjoy a free visit, where many discoveries await you! Overnight in port.

Day 3: A tactical and sporty Channel crossing to Plymouth, a city of history and famous for its picturesque Barbican district and the famous Mayflower, which set sail for the New World with no return. Overnight in Plymouth or nearby.

Day 4: We leave Plymouth for Penzance, a town at the very tip of Cornwall. On this day, we'll enjoy coastal sailing along Devon and Cornwall. Afterwards, we'll visit St Michael Mount, a miniature replica of Mont-Saint-Michel, accessible at low tide. Overnight in Penzance on the boat or nearby.

Day 5: We leave Penzance and head for the Isles of Scilly.

Day 6; 7; 8; 9: Discover the Scilly Islands. Anchorages in the islands with visits to Tresco, St Martin's, St Mary's and Bryher. Tresco is famous for its subtropical garden, home to exotic plants from all over the world. Saint Mary's is the most densely populated and largest island. Here you can discover its many coves and castles. Thanks to the warm currents of the Gulf Stream, which bathe the islands, you can also enjoy wide sandy beaches and a mild climate. You'll be surrounded by wild nature and numerous uninhabited islets. The Scilly Islands are a little jewel, untouched by mass tourism.

Day 10: Depart Scilly for another Channel crossing to Roscoff. This crossing may include some night sailing, depending on weather conditions and crew ability.

Day 11: This time, we set sail for Sark, also known as Sercq. An island where nature reigns supreme, with cliffs and lush green landscapes.

Day 12: Return to Barneville-Carteret around 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. After 12 days at sea, surrounded by breathtaking scenery
