Sustainability Statement

Our Planet, Our Responsibility

Our love for the ocean is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that the most profound travel experiences are those that are in harmony with nature. Our philosophy is simple: to explore the breathtaking beauty of our planet while leaving the lightest possible footprint. We are committed to responsible tourism, and this is reflected in every voyage we undertake. By choosing sailboats as our primary mode of accommodation and travel, we are not just offering a unique adventure; we are making a conscious choice to protect the pristine environments we are privileged to visit.

A Voyage of Minimal Impact

Our dedication to sustainable travel begins with our vessels. Sailboats allow us to harness the power of the wind, minimizing our reliance on fossil fuels and reducing our carbon emissions. This approach not only preserves the tranquility of the natural landscapes we explore but also ensures that our presence has a negligible impact on the delicate marine ecosystems. We are passionate about creating a clean and quiet voyage, a journey that respects the rhythm of the ocean and the life within it.

• Harnessing the Wind: Whenever the wind is in our favor, we set the sails, offering an authentic and eco-friendly sailing experience that dramatically reduces our carbon footprint.
• Leaving No Trace: Our ethos is to move like a shadow through the waters. When we depart from a location, the only sign of our presence is the fleeting wake of our boat.
• Conscious Consumption: We are mindful of our consumption on board, from responsible waste management to sourcing local produce whenever possible, further reducing our environmental impact.

Guardians of the Wild

Sailing with us is an invitation to witness nature in its purest form, from the majestic whales of the Norwegian coast to the untouched landscapes of the Arctic. With this privilege comes a profound responsibility to protect the wildlife and the fragile environments they inhabit. We are not just visitors in these pristine areas; we see ourselves as guardians, committed to preserving their beauty for generations to come.

• Respect for Wildlife: We maintain a respectful distance from all wildlife, observing them in their natural habitat without causing disturbance. Our encounters are on their terms, ensuring they can thrive.
• Education and Awareness: We share our knowledge of the local ecosystems with our guests, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for the natural world and the importance of its conservation.
• Active Stewardship: We actively contribute to the preservation of the areas we visit by participating in beach clean-ups and adhering to strict environmental guidelines, such as those set by AECO in the Arctic.

Pioneering the Future of Travel

We believe that travel should be transformative, not just for the traveler but for the planet as well. Our voyages are designed to broaden horizons, offering a unique blend of adventure, learning, and connection with nature. By choosing to sail with us, our guests are not just embarking on a holiday; they are becoming part of a community that is passionate about building a sustainable future for tourism.

• Immersive Experiences: Our trips offer a genuine connection with nature, allowing our guests to disconnect from the everyday and reconnect with the environment around them.
• Small-Scale Adventures: We intentionally keep our groups small, ensuring a more intimate and meaningful experience while minimizing our impact on the local communities and environments we visit.
• Inspiring Change:  We hope that by sharing our passion for the ocean and responsible travel, we can inspire our guests to become advocates for the planet long after their voyage with us has ended.
