5 perfect destinations for sail ships

 
Picture
Looking for "Fun In The Sun" on a cruise getaway but want something different, more unique, than a big ship experience?  A small ship cruise, and more specifically a sail ship experience, might just be the ticket. 

Imagine gliding through beautiful turquoise waters, sails billowing in the wind.  Leave behind the crowds, explore small enchanting ports, walk on white sandy beaches, swim in crystal clear lagoons, play with water toys from the sports deck.

Sound intriguing?  Have I piqued your interest?  Read on!

Why a small ship experience?  Oh my, where do I begin?  With fewer than 350 passengers, you won't feel crowded (or claustrophobic)  - plenty of space for all.  No lines!  Intimate settings - you actually get to know your fellow passengers.  Like minded travelers have many fun and interesting stories to tell.  Gourmet dining showcases local and regional foods.  Off the crowded path destinations. Exceptional customer service.  Amazing, right?

If you love being out on the water and have always wanted to try sailing, then a sail ship is calling you.  Here are five perfect destinations to consider:

Aegean Sea


Breathtaking beaches, old world treasures, small hidden ports and legendary islands.  Sailing through the Greek Isles will take you to Santorini, Mykonos and Rhodes, ancient ruins and UNESCO world heritage sites. 




Adriatic Sea


Sail along the scenic coastlines of  Croatia, Montenegro and Italy.   Croatia is one of Europe's hot new destinations.  From the famous walled city of Dubrovnik to the small town of Rovinj, Old World charm awaits you in small and big ports alike.

Andaman Sea


Phuket has been a vacation paradise for a long time.  The surrounding area  is dotted with beautiful islands and pristine beaches, most off the radar of the typical tourist.  Rich in coral reefs and marine life, the area is perfect for snorkeling, diving or a relaxing swim. 



French Polynesia


Discover the islands of Tahiti, hidden motus and experience rich Polynesian culture.  Tahiti is an easy place to fall in love with, given the beauty of the islands, the pristine water, the lure of Bora Bora and so much more.

Caribbean

The Caribbean is a big playground for sail ships, with plenty of islands to explore.  Visits to popular ports and chic islands are included, but calls on small port towns, anchoring in secluded bays, private beach parties and time to play with the water toys are what make these small ship cruises exceptional.
