Island Hopping Sailing Tours
Get ready for sun, sand, and sailing with your favourite summer outfits, swimwear, beach towel, and a floatie—or join our floatie recycle program! Soft bags are ideal, as hard-shell, wheeled suitcases take up valuable space. The lighter you pack, the more comfortable your cabin will be! Don’t forget a portable charger, any necessary medications, and your own reusable water bottle. Since cabins can get warm, a battery-powered fan is a great addition for extra comfort.
MedSailors trips are designed for 20 to 39 year olds, and we will always make sure we pair you with like-minded travellers who are looking for the same type of holiday experience as you.
You will be provided with a selection of yoghurts, cereals, milk, fresh bread, fresh fruit, and spreads. There will also be unlimited tea, coffee, and water available—all served with a side of spectacular views.
You’ll have access to the yacht’s facilities to prepare your own lunches. Each yacht is equipped with a gas stove, fridge, pots, pans, olive oil, salt, and pepper for your use. All guests share the galley, so we recommend keeping lunch simple. As yacht fridges are compact, buying food in small batches is best to avoid overcrowding the fridge. There will be plenty of supermarkets along the way to top up when needed.
MedSailors is all about experiencing new foods, and supporting local businesses, so we recommend eating on land each evening at local restaurants and tavernas. We will provide you with the best recommendations, and on one or two evenings your GEL will organise your whole flotilla to eat together at a local restaurant.
You will find a fully stocked kitchen with plates, cutlery, crockery, pots and pans, salt, pepper, and oil. There will also be sponges and washing liquid for doing the dishes. Your skipper will show you exactly how to use the kitchen.
Keep the party going by bringing your own alcohol or soft drinks on board. You can store your drinks in the fridges available, and there will be supermarkets along the whole route to top up your supplies so you never run out!
If you’ve booked a Superior Catamaran, your host will prepare breakfast and lunch for you each day. Breakfast will be a continental spread, while lunch will feature light Mediterranean dishes.
