Sailing adds a whole new dimension to travelling with Guys.travel. What began with two routes has grown into five distinct sailing trips, each shaped by its coastline, its culture, and the rhythm of life on the water. From the Mediterranean to Southeast Asia, these journeys are designed for gay men who enjoy movement, open space, and the kind of shared experiences that come naturally when you travel together.
More space, more comfort
All our sailing trips now take place on catamarans. That means more room to spread out, larger cabins, and a calmer ride at sea. Days unfold at an easy pace: mornings in quiet bays, afternoons under sail, evenings spent swimming, eating well, or heading ashore to explore. Sailing with Guys.travel is about freedom, connection, and seeing a destination from angles most travellers never get to experience.
Why sailing feels different
When you travel by boat, the journey becomes part of the experience. Coastlines stretch out slowly, islands rise from the water, and each day begins with a new horizon. You can drop anchor in places that can’t be reached by road - hidden coves, empty beaches, clear water far from the crowds. At the same time, these trips aren’t about staying on board all week. You regularly head ashore to explore towns, villages, and landscapes along the way. You’ll walk ancient streets, swim in open water, eat local food, and return to your floating base for the night. It’s a balance between movement and relaxation, adventure and ease.
No sailing skills needed - just be part of it
You don’t need any sailing experience to join these trips. Experienced skippers take care of navigation and safety, and they’re happy to explain what’s happening on board if you’re curious. What matters more is being open to the shared nature of life at sea. From time to time, everyone lends a hand - helping with docking, tidying up, or preparing meals together. It’s all straightforward, and it quickly brings the group together. By the end of the trip, most guests feel less like tourists and more like part of a crew.
Our sailing destinations
Each sailing trip has its own character. While the boats are similar, the places you sail through -and the atmosphere they create - are very different.
This trip takes you into the tropical heart of the Andaman Sea, where turquoise waters stretch between towering limestone cliffs and hidden bays that feel untouched by time. Over seven days, you’ll glide past secret lagoons and coral reefs, diving straight into warm, clear water for swims and snorkels that rival any postcard view. Time ashore leads you into vibrant coastal towns, fresh seafood markets, and relaxed seaside bars, while evenings on deck are shaped by tropical sunsets, shared drinks, and a sky full of stars. There’s a laid-back rhythm here - part exploration, part pure escape - making Thailand as much a sensory experience as an adventure.
The Croatian sailing route winds through the sun-washed islands of the Kornati archipelago and beyond, where ancient stone towns sit beside crystal-clear bays and rugged coastlines. Days often begin with the deep blue Adriatic as your backdrop, dropping anchor in quiet coves for swimming, snorkelling, or simply soaking up the Mediterranean sun. Historic port towns such as Trogir and Korčula invite you ashore for long evenings of fresh seafood, local wine, and that unmistakable Dalmatian pace of life. Whether you’re enjoying the stillness of a hidden bay or exploring a seaside village with the group, this trip blends nature, culture, and camaraderie.
Sailing around the Peloponnese combines classic Mediterranean scenery with a strong sense of history and variety. Along the route, you move across turquoise waters toward fishing villages, ancient harbours, and white-stone islands threaded with narrow cobblestone streets. Between swims in sheltered bays, the itinerary connects quiet Greek ports and stretches of coastline where the breeze carries the scent of sea salt and oregano. Add in seaside tavernas serving sun-warmed local dishes, and each day becomes a balance of gentle sailing and unhurried exploration - a Greek journey best felt from the deck.
In the Mediterranean’s emerald heart, Sardinia and Corsica offer a sailing experience defined by contrast. Rugged cliffs give way to smooth beaches, hidden anchorages open onto lively coastal harbours, and clear bays invite frequent swims straight from the catamaran. From the deck, you’ll watch the water shift from deep blue to near-tropical green, anchored close to towns like Santa Teresa or the dramatic fortified city of Bonifacio, perched high above Corsica’s limestone cliffs. Ashore, Italian and French island influences mix easily - delicious food, open-air cafés, and a sense of summer that lingers well beyond the season.
Sailing along the Amalfi Coast is cinematic by nature. Steep cliffs plunge into impossibly blue water, villages cling to rock faces, and tiny coves open like hidden gardens at sea level. Days are rich with variety: anchoring near Capri’s Blue Grotto, wandering Positano’s winding streets framed by bougainvillaea, or swimming off quiet beaches reachable only by boat. Throughout the journey, the Mediterranean breeze and gentle seas keep the pace easy—a balance of movement and stillness, perfect for taking in dramatic scenery and sharing memorable meals ashore.
What these sailing trips are really about
These sailing journeys are built around shared time. Early swims, long lunches, quiet moments on deck, conversations that stretch late into the evening. The mix of close-knit group travel and open space creates an atmosphere that feels relaxed, social, and natural. With five destinations now on offer, there are more ways than ever to experience sailing with Guys.travel. Wherever you choose to go, the focus stays the same: unforgettable destinations, time to slow down, and a group of men who enjoy travelling - together.
