Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Short island sail

A concise out‑and‑back sail to a nearby island keeps the day focused: time on the water bookending a shore visit and soak.

THE SOAK

Traditional wood‑fired Dutch tub

The centerpiece is a soothing soak in a wood‑fired Dutch tub onshore—an intimate, elemental way to warm up after sailing.

THE STYLE

Private escape for small groups

This is a private charter designed for up to four guests, making it a low‑key, flexible outing for friends or family.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

The rhythm is simple and deliberate: a five‑hour window that stitches together a short coastal sail, a shore landing on a nearby island, and time spent soaking in a wood‑fired tub before a return passage. The private format and small group size keep the focus on the elements—wind, water, and heat—across whatever season you choose.

Suitability

3
Season‑flexible adventurersThe experience is offered year‑round, making it appropriate for those comfortable with coastal conditions in any season.
