Discover natural islands.
Depending on the tides and winds, the cruise will allow you to discover either Alderney, or Sark, or both.
Navigation between 4 and 5h.
Aurigny (Alderney in English) is considered a true paradise. You will appreciate the superb landscapes and the luxuriant fauna and flora. You will also discover magnificent beaches on which you can bask or you can visit the island and Sainte Anne , its capital, which has retained its Norman and French character. Sark, the last feudal state in Europe, with unspoiled nature, a pure change of scenery a few miles from the French coast.
The bravest will discover the island on foot by crossing the cut that connects Grand Sark to Petit Sark, but you can also test the local means of transport, horse-drawn carriage and char-à-banc, the car being prohibited on the island. Meals and night on board the sailboat, at anchor.
Program subject to change, depending on weather conditions.

DUFOUR 50 CLASSIC is a boat of 15m.
After sailed in the Caribbean, it has been moved to SAINT NAZAIRE and then CHERBOURG in May 2014.
The port is in deep water, which allows to be free of our movement. The boat can leave and return to port at any time. This specificity gives an appreciable freedom of navigation because most of the ports located in HIPS must cope with the tide. It has 10 berths with 3 double cabins and 4 bunks. But in order to be comfortable in navigation, the crew will not exceed 8 people.
it has a large sail and a genoa of 55 m2, a spinnaker of 200 m2, a solent. The electronic equipment ensures optimum safety: an AIS GPS radar, a fixed VHF, a RAYMARINE electronic control unit.
