Hey welcome back! In this video, we say goodbye to Almerimar at last and make our way to the island of Formentera, one of the Balearic Islands just south of Ibiza. We set sail and have amazing conditions. We make the most of the good wind and shoot straigh...

Hello again! In this video, we hang out on the beautiful island of Formentera, just south of Ibiza in the Balearics. We start settling into life on anchor again, and enjoy the emptiness of the island - as we're there before peak tourist season. We hang out...

Hey and welcome back. In this video, we continue exploring Formentera island. We have a rough wake up call on Lars's birthday but try to make up for it and we walk inland to a lagoon & nature reserve on the island. We tackle some boat jobs, make focacc...

Hola! In this video, we pick up our friend Liam in Formentera and sail up to Ibiza. We take it easy, catch up, enjoy the balmy evenings and beautiful sunsets and clear blue water. We anchor off the magical island of Es Vedrá and go for a scenic walk along...

Buenos días! In this video we’re joined by our friend Liam and we start off by sailing from Ibiza to Formentera. We get spoiled by some fantastic sunsets, and we drop the hook in the beautiful Cala Saona where the water is crystal clear. We take the din...

Hola! In this video we start off in Ibiza on the Northern coast in a bay called Cala Benirras. We hike up to an old tower and come back to the bay to listen to the live drumming music being played on the beach. We sail to Mallorca the following day - it's ...

Hello and welcome back to Mallorca! In this video, we take a hike up in the Tramuntana hills, a nice break from the blue sea views we're used to. We stop at the small hillside village of Fornalutx and end up in Soller. We find a great spot for some yoga ...

In this video, we head to a new anchorage in Mallorca to escape some swell. Turns out it's beautiful, it's nestled in a national park and has crystal clear water. We make the most of our time here doing every activity possible and soaking up the Mediterran...

Hey welcome back! It's been a bit quiet on here as we've been sailing much more and getting more miles in recently. In this video, we sail up to the Northwestern coast of Mallorca, buddy boating with our friends World Tour Adventures and Nomad Citizen Sail...

Hello! Wow we've been gone a while! We took a break as we were crossing the Atlantic so back to sharing more regularly again. We're still working through our content from our Summer in the Mediterranean, and in this video, we have some friends and family v...

Hello again! In this video we sail to the island of Cabrera, a National Park in the Balearics. We're lucky to get a spot there in high season and start to make our way down from the North of Mallorca. We stop for a night in what could be the best or wors...

Hello! Welcome back. In this video we get to work on some boat projects that we neglected for a while - starting with our quarter berth revamp in our Tayana 37. We manage to get our hands on a new dinghy and have some friends come visit. We go to a great l...

Hello! In this video we start making our way out of the Balearics where we've been chilling out for the Summer and we start making our way out WEST! We speedily sail down the coast of Spain to try and get out of the Mediterranean as fast as we can to start...

Hello! In this video, we say our goodbyes to friends in Almerimar and have an overnight sail to Estepona, further West along the coast of Spain. We pull into port there and set up camp for a few days where we make some progress on some big boat upgrades we...

Hej hej, welcome back! Join us this week as we take a quick detour up to Sweden before continuing our journey out to the Atlantic with Navika. We go to Gothenburg and visit some friends of ours you might recognise from our time in Menorca (Ep. 21) who have...

In this video we start preparing our sailboat for some offshore sailing, to be able to cross the Atlantic. We do lots of boat projects, including installing new water tanks and solar panels, and we replace some stays ourselves too. We sail to Gibraltar / L...

Hello! In this video we sail from Gibraltar down to the Canary Islands. We have our friends Seb & Fanni join us for the sail down and after getting the final boat jobs done we set off and leave mainland Europe. The passage takes us 4.5 days and we have...

In this video, we start off in Las Palmas in Gran Canaria and get on with some boat jobs - including rigging a kicking strap after our vang breaks again, running a third reef in the main sail and redoing our entire bed and mattress set up due to having fou...

Hello! In this video, we continue discovering Tenerife. Mountains, rainforest, scuba diving, wildlife, surfing, culture, history? This island seems to have it all. We only really scratched the surface of everything you can do here but we fell in love with ...

In this video, we have a quick tour of La Gomera, meal prep and get ready for our passage to Cape Verde. We had 750nm to sail - and the wind was going to be quite strong. Worst nightmare hits when we lose our autopilot - we quickly realise how tough the pa...

Hello! Welcome back. In this video, we arrive in Cape Verde, and start exploring the islands of Sal, Boa Vista, Sao Nicolau before ending up in Mindelo on the island of Sao Vicente. Lars takes every occasion to try out his new surfboard and we enjoy being ...

Hello! In this video, we're in Cape Verde in Mindelo and are taking a ferry across to the island of Santo Antão which is very close but you can't really go with the boat as there's nowhere to anchor. We have family visiting, so we stay there for a few da...

Ahoy! The big day is finally here and we finally set sail on our transatlantic crossing from Cape Verde towards the Caribbean. Except... we have a couple of surprises before leaving, which cause us to leave later than expected! And a second surprise when w...

Welcome to Part 2 of our Atlantic Crossing. In this video, we try and avoid some bad weather in the middle of the Atlantic, we go for a dip in the ocean, and we manage to catch our first fish ever aboard Navika (fish tacos here we comeee). Anyway, life goe...

Welcome back! In this video we continue our journey sailing across the Atlantic Ocean, heading towards the Caribbean. This is the last third of the passage, and we go from calm weather to some stronger wind and swell which changes the experience completely...

We made it to Martinique after sailing across the Atlantic and now we get to relax a bit and enjoy the island. We spend lots of time exploring the underwater world which has so much to offer and we go scuba diving from the boat for the first time. We tackl...

Aloha, welcome back! In this video, we set sail from Antigua and make our way North to its sister island Barbuda. We're so surprised when we get there to find it's basically just one big beach! But we have it all to ourselves and swim ashore for an explore...

Hello :) In this video, we leave Barbuda with our boat and sail towards Antigua. We have some bad weather underway, it starts to rain as we get closer to our destination. Lars insists on us sailing through a pretty narrow passage to get to our anchorage, b...

Hello! This week we sail from Antigua to Guadeloupe, which is one of the French Caribbean islands. We didn't know much about the island before coming but we found there was so much to do and see here! Before setting off, we install our AcuvaTech UV filte...

We're in Guadeloupe in this video and we decide to do our AIDA 2 freediving course to learn all the fundamentals of freediving and feel more confident diving on our own. We meet Tom who's a freediving instructor on a boat we're anchored up next to who runs...
