How adventurous would you say you are? Let’s say on a scale of one-TO-ten? Or seeing as it is December, on a scale of
-TO-
Does the same number apply when it comes to choosing your sailing destination? For those of you who answered adventurously, the following is for you. Sailing anywhere is fun, but if you fancy something a bit more challenging than the Ionian or away from the popular BVI, why not try the following:
Cape Verde
Cape Verde
Off the Western coast of Africa, the islands of Cape Verde boast miles of sandy beaches, a tropical climate and friendly locals. Cape Verde consists of 25 islands, 9 of which are uninhabited. Every island has a character all of its own that begs to be explored. The Western islands have high volcanic mountains and rocky coast lines. The Eastern islands are dryer and flatter; the islands of Sal, Maio and Boavista are home to breathtakingly beautiful beaches. The crystal clear waters reveal brilliantly coloured fish making it the perfect spot for scuba diving and snokelling. Ideal wind conditions as well as warm water and sun, make the islands of Cape Verde great for year-round sailing. Check out our special offers HERE
Azores
The archipelago of the Azores is located in the middle of the northern hemisphere of the Atlantic Ocean and extends in an area approx. 600km wide.
The nine islands that make up the Azores are in fact the peaks of some of the world’s tallest mountains, reaching from deep beneath the Atlantic. The once-uninhabited, volcanic archipelago now hosts thousands of tourists every year who flock to the islands for sun, sand and verdant mountain scenery.
The weather is best between June and October with the hottest months being July, August and September. Check out our special offers HERE
Canaries
Located west of Africa, the Canaries enjoy a sub-tropical climate and sunshine all year round. From the bases on Gran Canaria, Tenerife and Lanzarote you are perfectly positioned to explore the surrounding islands. La Gomera remains blissfully untouched by tourism. Perhaps this is due to the lack of white sandy beaches, but it does have hideaway coves and a historic port at San Sebastian, the starting point for Columbus on his first voyage in 1492. El Hierro may be the smallest of the Canaries, but it’s strikingly dramatic and the sea is so clear, it’s a paradise for snorkelers and divers. La Palma, the most exotic of the islands formed from a volcanic crater with a coastline of majestically steep cliffs and black volcanic sands. If you’re lucky you may even enjoy seeing dolphins and pilot whales playing in your bow wave! Check out our special offers HERE
