In this week’s episode, we’re trying to give you a real glimpse into what life looks like living on a catamaran in the Med! From island anchorages and secret underwater adventures, to running from storms and tackling boat maintenance, it’s all part of the reality of sailing full-time in the Mediterranean ⛵️✨
We leave mainland France behind and head for island life, exploring the stunning Îles d'Hyères, swimming in crystal clear waters, hiking rugged landscapes, and even anchoring in a nudist resort by accident (yes… that was unexpected 😅).
We try out some new filming gear to take you along as we sail Rúna in strong winds! And we discover Europe’s very first marine national park at Port-Cros, where we search for a hidden underwater trail. And when the thunderstorm rolls in, Ruth gets very wet as she sails us back to the mainland to ride it out in a protected bay.
This is a typical week living on a sailing boat in the Mediterranean!

Hey! We’re Ruth and Andrew 👋🏼
Earlier this year, after years of dreaming, we left our family, friends and lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, behind as we set off to chase our shared dream of sailing the world. In April, we bought our 11m catamaran, Rúna, which we now call home as we live, work, sail and adventure full-time. Join us as we explore the Mediterranean and get to grips with life at sea 🏝️
