CARBON REDUCTION

Our accommodations on the boat embody our commitment to sustainable practices. While renewable energy is an ongoing initiative, we've implemented several eco-conscious measures:

- The boat features 4 shared cabins, and each bathroom utilizes filtered saltwater directly from the ocean for showers, sinks, and toilets.

- Harnessing wind energy, our sail propels the boat on wind-friendly days, reducing reliance on the engine and minimizing our carbon footprint.

- Solar panels on deck generate electricity for all onboard needs, further aligning with our commitment to renewable energy.

Each day, we ensure a delightful spread of both vegan and vegetarian options for breakfast and lunch. Our carefully planned meals showcase an array of local-sourced fruits, vegetables, and delectable dishes crafted from the finest regional products. Approximately 80% of our ingredients are sourced from local farmers, emphasizing freshness and supporting the local economy.

The oceans are overfished and many species are threatened with extinction due to overfishing.The meat industry is the biggest destroyer in the world and the main cause of climate change. To become aware of this, it is important to eat consciously and not in excess. This does not mean that there is no fish or meat, but it should be enjoyed consciously. The same goes for drinks, you can drink a lot of wine on land, but on the boat, it is important to connect with nature and stay in a healthy balance.

We're passionate about seasonal ingredients, aligning our menus with the natural bounty of each period for a true taste of the region. We actively check certifications and locality for any products sourced outside the local markets to ensure they meet our sustainability standards.

We avoid palm oil, soy, and forestry products in our food supply chain. Our dedication to sustainability encompasses conscious choices in the sourcing of all ingredients. This also includes learning that food is not thrown away senselessly, especially not on board with being in nature.

ENVIRONMENT AND WILDLIFE

Eco-Friendly Accommodations Oversight: Our accommodations are regularly examined, and stringent policies are in place to ensure alignment with our commitment to reducing environmental impact. This includes the exclusive use of sustainable products for washing, cleaning, and other essential activities.

Additional Environmental Practices:
- Safe Anchor Selection: Park rangers, entrusted with preserving UNESCO heritage sites, carefully select anchor locations, prioritizing safety and minimizing environmental impact.

- Pollution-Free Sailing: Sailing relies on natural elements—water and wind—eliminating any pollution during our journeys.

- Engine Usage Consideration: In areas teeming with wildlife, like fish farms, coral reefs, and coastal zones, we limit engine usage to protect and preserve the delicate beauty of nature.

Trash separation is a high priority for us, contributing to our commitment to minimizing our ecological impact- preserving the environment on both the islands and the boat.

LOCAL ECONOMY

We do our best to involve as many cultural activities in our program, as we can on our route. We carefully select family-run restaurants on the islands and marinas we visit. The island marinas and adjacent restaurants are both owned/run by families living on the islands for many generations.

We should be thankful that we don't have to go hungry or worry about getting food. We would like to draw attention to this gift with our concept. With the food from local farmers, we support agribusiness and local farmers. The cultural experiences draw attention to the origin and careful preparation and show what it means to enjoy good food.


EMPLOYMENT, INCLUSIVITY AND DIVERSITY

Within our operational team in this region, we have a workforce comprising approximately 10 individuals representing various nations, contributing to the creation of a diverse and inclusive workplace. Concurrently, we take pride in our partnerships with about 15 local individuals and businesses, actively engaging with the community. We cultivate meaningful collaborations with local partners, such as sourcing produce from nearby markets, collaborating with family-run restaurants, and supporting local boat rental companies.

Our trip is LGBTQ+ friendly, creating a welcoming space for individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Committed to fostering inclusivity, we strive to offer a supportive environment where everyone can feel at ease and fully relish the transformative experience of our wellness sailing adventure.
