Your sailing trip
A unique sailing cruise in the Azores on a Luxury yacht. The power of volcanoes, the magnificent scenery of the Atlantic Ocean and the emotion of whale watching, what's better?
Peter Café Sport in Horta on Faial Island is the meeting point of the Atlantic sailors ... But this enchanting island group is more than just a stopover rugged countryside, friendly people, spectacular volcanoes, green fields, cliffs ...
Even from Horta, the view opens to the inner archipelago where we sail in the next few days. From the island of Pico with the same highest mountain in Portugal it is just a four-mile narrow strait. The traveling Sao Jorge Island is located 20 nautical miles. Your dragon's back of an up to 1,000 m high rising mountains obscured the view of the island of Terceira and Graciosa, the (70 nm and 46 nm) away lie behind it. The Azores are also among the world's best spots for whale watching and is a must for divers ...

We merge the best of the world of sailing charters with the world of traditional cruises. Authentic and individual sailing, just as if you had chartered your own yacht, is combined with the attentive and caring service of our professional crew and the comfort of a cruise ship.
Thereby, we do not follow a strict routing during the mostly one-week sailing cruises, but go by wind, weather, and the desires of our guests. Hence, if the wind is good, we may sail even a little into the night, accompanied by a breathtaking view of the stars above...
And if the wind is calm, we just find the closest bay and enjoy a refreshing swim, go snorkeling or take a stroll on the beach..., seafaring pure, far from the mass tourism of large cruise liners.
Whenever possible, we actually set sails, but only for about 4-7 hours a day. In the remaining time there is plenty opportunity to take a swim right off board, to go on an individual excursion to the shore and get to know the country and its people, and much more...
Hence, on CHRONOS everybody will find their individual dream of a sailing cruise come true!

Travel organizer tips
All our trips are suitable for single travellers, because nothing unites people more than a common sailing experience. Most of our guests are open, straightforward people who will connect very easily. Therefore, individuals never feel alone on board of our yachts.
Especially suitable for single travellers are our Theme Journeys. A special guide will join and organizes excursions.
Single travellers can book 1/2 cabin in that category. You are then in principle willing to share the cabin with a (same-sex) guest. Then, no surcharge applies. Do you want to use a guaranteed cabin alone, you would pay a 50% surcharge.
Our crew is loving and familial. You will feel as being home!
