What a voyage really costs.

Few adventure sites explain this. We would rather you knew exactly what you are paying for — and could compare us with anyone else.

The budget for a voyage like this one always comes in three parts.

1. 1

   The journey

   Getting to the ship and home again: flights, trains, transfers, visas. You organise it, you pay for it, and you choose what suits you.

2. 2

   The ship

   A fixed contribution, set in your contract, for your place on board. It covers the skipper's services, passenger insurance on board, your berth, bed linen and towels, and the equipment (paddleboard, mask and snorkel).

3. 3

   The ship's kitty (APA)

   Everything that gets used up along the way: food and drinks, diesel, harbour fees. It is paid in advance as a provision, at cost, and settled at the end of the voyage with a full statement. Any unspent balance is returned to you.

The kitty varies — and you have a say in it

• The wind: no wind means more engine, so more diesel.
• The harbours: every night in a marina, chosen or needed, adds harbour fees.
• The table: big appetites or special drinks mean a bigger shopping bill.

No hidden costs

We charge what is fair, and we show you how. When you compare offers, check what each price really includes: the skipper, the insurance, the food, the fuel, the harbour fees. Now you know what to look for.
