Sailing from Malta to Southern Spain

Gozo, Malta’s smaller and greener sister island, is peaceful and full of charm. Often linked to Homer’s legend of Calypso, it offers quiet villages, beaches and cliffs. Gozo is also one of the Mediterranean’s top diving destinations, with reefs, caves and wrecks, as well as medieval watchtowers and small countryside chapels.

Experience the freedom of traditional sailing as the Star Clipper glides across the open sea. Spend the day relaxing on deck, enjoying the sunshine and fresh air. Adventurous guests can try climbing the rigging or steering the ship under the crew’s guidance. Inside, you’ll find inviting lounges and a peaceful library to enjoy.

Cagliari, Sardinia’s capital, is a city of layers, where history and modern life meet. Explore the medieval Castello district, perched high above the sea, and admire views over the harbour. The city’s streets reveal Roman ruins, elegant palaces and lively markets. Don’t miss the nearby beaches and the island’s excellent local cuisine.

Another relaxing day on board gives you time to enjoy the beauty of sailing. Watch the crew work the sails, read a book by the pool, or share stories with fellow travellers. Whether you prefer quiet moments or friendly company, each hour at sea brings the calm rhythm of life on the water.

As the sails fill with wind, enjoy another day surrounded by the sea. Relax on a sun lounger or take part in sailing activities with the crew. The open deck is perfect for sea views and quiet reflection, while evenings bring a warm, friendly atmosphere under the stars.
