Culinary Sailing Holidays

Great food and wine on deck and on shore

Unique cultures, fresh ingredients, and fine wines create a sailing vacation with a sensory twist. Try something new and explore family-owned vineyards, traditional ristoranti, and distinct local dishes in some of the world’s most tempting sailing destinations.

Join a food and wine flotilla and experience the coastal cuisine of Croatia or Italy, calling in at fantastic restaurants and renowned vineyards to sample ripe produce. Sail the Amalfi Coast in search of the world’s best anchovies. Sip limoncello on deck, or tuck into fresh Croatian figs and a glass of Plavac Mali. Your favorite restaurant could be just around the bay.

On a food and wine flotilla, you’ll join forces with fellow foodies for a sociable journey, eating and drinking your way through the highlights of the Croatian or Italian coastlines. Our experienced Lead Crew will take you to the best restaurants, bars, and vineyards in the region, whether popular hotspots or tucked-away treasures. You’ll sample the best of the regions’ food and wine in the company of new friends, and improve your sailing skills with the help of a dedicated lead crew, or even your own private skipper.
