Leg 1: Rhodes to Malta, 28th April to 4th May 2025 (660nm)
The adventure begins on the island of Rhodes, known for its medieval Old Town, ancient ruins, and stunning coastline. Leaving Greece behind, sail west through the Aegean and Ionian Seas, navigating past the Greek and Italian coasts. This leg offers a mix of open-sea crossings and coastal passages, with a stopover in Crete.
Arrive in Malta, a UNESCO-listed island nation with a fascinating blend of European and Arabic influences. The capital, Valletta, is a treasure trove of historic sites, fortifications, and vibrant harbours, making it a perfect stopover for provisioning and exploring.
Leg 2: Malta to Palma de Mallorca, 7th to 13th May 2025 (600nm)
Departing from Malta, we cross the central Mediterranean, passing Sicily and its famous Mount Etna before heading towards the Tyrrhenian Sea. Depending on conditions, potential routing may include passing close to the Aeolian Islands, home to the active Stromboli volcano, or sailing south of Sardinia.
You make landfall in Palma de Mallorca, the sailing capital of the Balearic Islands. With its grand Gothic cathedral, lively old town, and world-class marinas, Palma is an excellent stop for crew changes and rest. The island itself offers rugged coastlines, hidden coves, and a rich maritime history, making it a highlight of the journey.
Leg 3: Palma to Gibraltar, 16th to 22nd May 2025 (500nm)
The final leg takes you westward across the Balearic Sea and into the western Mediterranean. This is a strategic sailing route that has been navigated by mariners for centuries, leading us toward the legendary Strait of Gibraltar.
Gibraltar, the iconic Rock, marks the gateway between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean. A British Overseas Territory, Gibraltar is famous for its dramatic cliffs, fascinating military history, and stunning views across to Morocco. The stop here offers a chance to explore the Great Siege Tunnels, the Barbary macaques, and the lively marina scene before concluding the journey
