Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. Mark Twain

Where we will be
Return Journey to Spain
"A cruiser's plans are written in the sand at low tide." Plans do change, weather, mechanical issues, or sometimes you just need to stay a little longer or conversely had enough of a place. For whatever reason any plan is subject to the vagaries of the gods and Murphy's law. The following is an outline, as we don't need to be in a specific area to collect anyone from an airport or deliver them back to reality it is likely to change.
Malta
Bridging Africa to Europe and Europe to the Middle and Far East. Malta has a rich cultural heritage. From Medieval knights through a brave defense against Germany in the Second World War. Malta must have more UNESCO sites per square mile than any other country in the world. With warm hospitable locals, crystal clear waters and great weather, this is a perfect destination.
Tunisia
Tunisia is the underrated gem in the southern Mediterranean. With a unique blend of Mediterranean charm, wonderful food, ancient history and breathtaking views of the Sahara. From the ancient ruins of Carthage to the stunning coastal holiday resorts of Hammamet, this country offers something special to the visiting yachsman.
Sardinia
The Sardinian coastline is one of the most beautiful in the world. Amazing culinary and cultural delights, complement beautiful beaches, clear waters and diverse marine life. Being able to access beaches only available by sea makes Sardinia a special cruising ground.
Corsica
Where Italy meets France. Home of Napoleon Bonapart. This mountain in the sea blends best of mountain culture with life on the coast. The Corsican people are proud of their unique heritage and the scenery is amazing. Natural hot springs, secluded anchorages and amazing food and wine Corsica is a must visit location.
Emporda
At the heart of the Costa Brava in Catalonia (Northern Spain). Emporda represents the best of the Mediterranean. With its own Wine route, medieval walled villages, stunning beaches and coastline. It was home to Salvador Dali. Ancient and modern history, cider, charcuterie and seafood. This area simply has it all. This area is our chosen base as we author the Mediterranean Spain pilot book for the RCCPF and Imray.
