eXplore
Sailing and adventure: exploring together!
Capetan eXplore is an atypical sailing expedition dedicated to those seeking adventure beyond the classic holiday experiences. eXplore it's no ordinary holiday at sea - it's an opportunity for experienced skippers to test their skills in challenging conditions, from unpredictable winds to strong currents and complex sailing scenarios, all outside the regular sailing season.
At the same time, even those with no sailing experience are welcome to discover the authentic and intense side of offshore sailing. Although no previous knowledge is necessary, participants should be prepared for active involvement, changing conditions and the real pace of life at sea.
Whether you're a sailor eager to push your limits or a curious traveller in search of an authentic maritime experience, this voyage promises growth, challenges and unforgettable moments on the water.
More than just a holiday, the Capetan event eXplore is an opportunity for growth, learning and unforgettable moments on the water. Are you up for the challenge?
Why is so special eXplore
- Challenging conditions - unpredictable weather, stronger winds, colder temperatures, unpredictable currents or rough waters;
- Active participation - Crew members (even those with no sailing experience) can be involved in manoeuvres and will be left with completely different memories from their usual holidays;
- Skills development - Experienced skippers have the chance to test and improve their skills in more demanding environments, familiarise themselves with new destinations and rack up the miles;
- Unconventional destinations - The trails lead to remote, wild or less frequented places, instead of the classic tourist destinations, places of special beauty;
- Spirit of exploration - travelling is about pushing boundaries, stepping out of your comfort zone, embracing the unpredictable and exploring atypical destinations;
