The Spanish north-west coast is an unknown area for most people. Consequently, this part of Spain does not have mass tourism. From the lively and atmospheric La Coruna, we sail via the many inlets, called Rias here, to cosy Vigo. Of course, we also anchor off the beautiful Islas Cies. A nature reserve where we also take a wonderful walk with stunning views of the islands and the ocean. Category C: Relaxed sailing holiday with shorter day distances and plenty of time for sightseeing.

Easter – our classic, relaxed enjoyment of the holidays on board. The start of the trip is the beautiful Schlei. Everything is possible on this April trip: sometimes you need polar bear skills, but you might as well get your first sunburn.

‘Go West’ is the motto of this trip. From Stralsund to Kappeln, it is 130 miles west. The goal is clear, but the wind determines the route, and there will probably be a few cosy Danish ports along the way.
