About the experience
Embark on a timeless adventure aboard Grayhound, a majestic replica of an 18th-century English lugger. This exceptional vessel transports you to a world of naval elegance and historical charm, for a unique and immersive sailing experience.
During this half-day, you'll cast off from a port steeped in history and sail peacefully along a spectacular coastline, where cliffs, wild coves, and maritime heritage blend with the rhythm of the wind. You can participate in maneuvers, learn the basics of traditional sailing, or simply relax on deck and enjoy the surroundings. Stops are planned for swimming or exploring, depending on the weather and the mood on board. The crew, passionate and welcoming, is happy to share the history of the boat and the sailing world.
What makes this experience truly unique is the exceptional character of the ship itself. Built with passion and respect for period techniques, Grayhound combines fine wood, majestic sails, and rare authenticity. On board, everything exudes craftsmanship, adventure, and maritime heritage. Unlike modern boats, here, every sound of creaking wood, every rope being hoisted, every manual maneuver brings you closer to a forgotten, vibrant, and noble way of sailing.
Whether you're a history buff, a sea lover, or simply curious to experience a different experience, this cruise aboard Grayhound is an enchanting interlude—a moment suspended between sea, memory, and beauty.
