Yes, we kindly ask for your special attention to this point.rnPlease use only footwear with white rubber soles or nautical shoes with special soles that do not leave marks. This footwear is reserved exclusively for use on board. Before boarding, the usual procedure is to change from street shoes to nautical shoes before entering the yacht. This ensures the preservation and cleanliness of the deck.
During sailing, it is essential to always wear footwear for safety reasons, as unexpected movements may require quick reactions to prevent injuries. However, when the yacht is anchored or docked in the marina, you can go barefoot. Still, for hygiene reasons, we suggest doing so only when necessary.
The vessel is equipped with safety measures such as VHF radio with DSC and a dedicated 180Ah battery, portable VHF radio, excellent electrical storage capacity on board (1000Ah), high-quality supporting electronics, and a solar panel; AIS navigation system, main and emergency VHF antennas; continuous weather information reception; ocean-class liferaft with capacity for 12 people, equipped with supplies and equipment to ensure the safety of all occupants for over 24 hours at sea.

Emergency ladders at the stern of the boat accessible to the shipwrecked. ABC-type fire extinguishers and fire blankets located in each cabin, lounge, and kitchen.

Thus, we are confident that we are prepared to respond appropriately in an emergency. Everything is planned so you can enjoy your adventure with peace of mind and safety, knowing that every detail has been carefully considered to ensure a safe experience from start to finish.
In principle, our trips are designed to make the most of the best time of year. If it rains, the guide will assess the best solution. If you choose not to do the walk, alternative suggestions will be provided.
The location you are in will be crucial. Your trip includes assistance insurance covering medical control, hospital, and medical expenses. However, if you prefer more comprehensive coverage, we recommend purchasing personalized insurance from an insurance company. Whether you are on the boat or in the mountains, the crew will assist you, evaluate the situation, and take the necessary measures, including urgent evacuation if needed. We guarantee that your safety will always be the priority.
We work with two companies: Pantaenius and Tranquilidade Seguros.
Effort at the right level. Choosing the appropriate level of challenge is essential for having a motivating adventure without excess.rnThese are adventures that, regardless of the level, are designed for people who enjoy a good challenge, testing themselves, and feeling accomplished, but never overwhelmed. The effort will be rewarded with amazing views and daily achievements.
You will be among other adventurers with the same technical and physical level, ready to explore, discover, and share incredible stories.

Each group is formed by those seeking the same type of activity and intensity, making the journey smoother, more fun, and at your pace. This is the ideal environment to share achievements, meet people, and live unforgettable experiences.
Besides the trip cost, you should account for some additional expenses, some optional, such as souvenirs, alcoholic beverages, and meals outside the boat, as we serve one meal a day on board (lunch or dinner, depending on the activity).rnIt is also important to set aside part of your budget for possible unforeseen expenses. Good financial planning will allow you to enjoy the adventure to the fullest, without worries, and with the freedom to seize every opportunity that arises.

We love photos and videos and appreciate receiving images from our guests! Please make sure you respect any local restrictions regarding drone use, by checking with the relevant authorities. The responsibility to follow established rules is yours. As for photography and video, we understand that some participants may value privacy. For more details, please refer to the terms and conditions of participation.
For those not accustomed to the movement of the sea, the body generally needs some time to adjust to the motion of boat, which can take a few hours or, in rarer cases, up to two days. To make this adjustment smoother, we organize a check-in the day before departure and offer a Sunset Sail, allowing you to gradually and calmly familiarize yourself with the onboard environment.rnIf you want to minimize the risk of seasickness, we recommend taking a preventive tablet the day before the trip, which can help avoid any discomfort. Although most people adapt quickly and without problems, each experience is unique. The most important thing is to act in a way that ensures your comfort and well-being during the adventure.
If you tend to get seasick with the motion of boat, we recommend using seasickness tablets. Stability onboard depends on both the sea conditions and the size of boat. Fortunately, the size of our vessel ensures greater stability, even in moderate conditions, and we always sail in a way that provides the maximum possible comfort, minimizing movements. For extra safety, we suggest trying the tablets before embarking on a longer trip by taking a short sailing outing to assess their effectiveness.
The boat is properly certified and equipped to carry up to 12 people offshore, ensuring safety and compliance with maritime regulations. However, to provide a higher level of comfort during the trip, we choose to limit the number of guests to just 8. This approach allows each participant to enjoy more space, greater personalized attention from the crew, and a more intimate and pleasant experience onboard. By choosing to take fewer people, we ensure that everyone can make the most of every moment of the adventure, creating unforgettable memories in a more welcoming and comfortable environment.
