The waters between Sardinia and Corsica are among the most spectacular sailing grounds in the Mediterranean — a dreamscape of emerald coves, dramatic granite cliffs, hidden anchorages, and glamorous seaside villages. Step aboard the magnificent Chronos for a week of elegant sailing through the legendary Costa Smeralda and the crystal-clear waters of the La Maddalena Archipelago before crossing the famed Strait of Bonifacio to the medieval Corsican citadel of Bonifacio.
This unforgettable voyage combines authentic sailing aboard one of the world’s most beautiful classic yachts with relaxed luxury, Mediterranean cuisine, turquoise anchorages, and the timeless romance of life under sail. Along the way, guests can swim in secluded bays, paddleboard over impossibly clear water, stroll historic harbor towns, and enjoy unforgettable sunsets from the deck of Chronos.
This is not a cruise in the traditional sense — it is a true sailing journey. Wind, weather, and sea conditions shape each day’s adventure, creating a relaxed and authentic experience that connects guests to the rhythm of the Mediterranean.
From hidden anchorages and elegant harbor towns to long lunches on deck and evenings beneath the stars, this voyage captures the very essence of classic sailing in one of Europe’s most beautiful coastal regions.
