ADVENTURE SAILING AROUND THE WORLD

The Earth is two-thirds water, yet we spend most of our life on land. So cast off, take the plunge and discover the life-changing freedom of a holiday under sail. VentureSail offer 400+ adventures to amazing destinations on unusual boats, run by passionate crews.

Get hands on and learn the ropes, or relax on deck and enjoy the journey wherever it takes you. Delicious food is freshly prepared for you each day, and a good night’s sleep in your comfy berth is guaranteed. There’s a huge choice across the fleet, from private en-suite cabins on luxury yachts to shared quarters on a classic tall ship. There’s so much of the world waiting to be explored, discover it under sail.

Our Unique Fleet

Whether it’s relaxing in 5*-star luxury, adventuring to the Arctic, or enjoying hands on sailing aboard a historic classic ship, our skippered sailing holidays offer it all.

Luxury Sailing

Think stylish en-suite cabins, attentive crew, outstanding food and five-star treatment on board elegant vessels - many of which carry ‘water toys’ including SUP’s, kayaks, water and snorkelling.

Traditional Sailing

Experience a hands-on adventure on a historic ship. Majestic to look at, each vessel has a story to tell and provide the chance to experience life on the waves as generations before us.

Expedition Yachts

Venture off the beaten track with an expedition yacht vessel. Their sleek design allows them to explore otherwise inaccessible locations, and enables close encounter with wildlife.

Why Choose A Skippered Sailing Holiday

Unlike a flotilla or charter experience, skippered sailing holidays offer guests the chance to book a berth, cabin or the entire boat, and are a great way to holiday on the water. They enable our guests to truly unwind in the knowledge that a fully qualified crew and skipper are taking care of all safety measures whilst planning the optimum sailing routes according to the tides and weather.

With all of this in good hands, guests are able to make the holiday their own; getting hands on with sailing by learning the ropes or taking the helm, watching for wildlife or enjoying the simple pleasures of stopping, sitting and taking in the magnificent views.

Additionally, most on board meals are included in the ticket price with meals and tasty treats prepared by a dedicated chef on board. After time spent on the water in the fresh sea air, appetites will be pleasantly satiated with a freshly prepared meal or baked goods, using fresh, local produce as much as possible. Plus, there’s no washing up - every little thing will be taken care of ensuring guests are able to enjoy every moment of their holiday.
