The desire for adventure and authenticity is driving more and more travelers to choose sailing boats to spend their vacations. But in the world of boating vacations there are not only weeks aboard the latest generation of comfort-filled catamarans. More and more, the market is turning to offshore sailing proposals and “one way” itineraries, that is, with embarkation and disembarkation in two ports even far apart. These are thick offshore routes, between distant ports and islands, where you embark in one location and disembark in another, experiencing the sea without limits and without the constraint of return. An experience that conquers singles, nature lovers, slow tourism and those who want a true full immersion in life on board, between socializing, learning and absolute freedom.
Sailwiz, a platform specializing in shared sailing trips with professional skippers, offers for summer 2025 a rich selection of boat crossings in the Mediterranean, perfect for those looking for strong emotions and new friendships. Here are 10 of the many proposals you can find on the portal:
- Weekend trip to the Balearic Islands: 3-day mini-crossings for those who want to gain experience and experience the open sea.
- From Castellón to Monaco: a true 14-day adventure between Spain and France, ideal for those who dream of long sailings and new horizons.
- Portocolom (Majorca) – Málaga: 14 days and about 550 nautical miles to cross the western Mediterranean.
- Catamaran leg: Gibraltar-Maiorca: 9 days of deep-sea sailing between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean to discover the route of the great navigators.
- Málaga – Lisbon: 10 days and 380 miles between Spain and Portugal, for those who want to test themselves on international routes.
- Azores – Cadiz/Cadiz – Ibiza: 9-day Atlantic leg or 5-day Mediterranean leg.
- Catania to Bari: 8 days of sailing along the southern coast of Italy, perfect for those who want to explore our sea from a unique perspective.
- From Bari to Vrsar (Croatia): 8-day journey between Adriatic and Croatian coasts, to discover bays and ports off the beaten track.
- Crossing from Barcelona to the Straits of Bonifacio with nautical sextant: 15 days for those who want to learn traditional navigation and experience the sea like a real sailor.
- Aeolian Islands one way from Trapani to Porto Rosa: 8 days among the pearls of the Tyrrhenian Sea, perfect for those who love volcanic islands and breathtaking landscapes.
These are just a few of the experiences offered by Sailwiz-a platform specializing in shared sailing trips with professional skippers-that are winning over an increasingly large audience. The reason? In addition to the allure of the unexpected and discovery, deep-sea sailing vacations provide moments of true socialization, a chance to learn how to really steer a boat, and a chance to unplug from routine (and digital screens) to fully immerse oneself in nature.
