THE WORLD’S MOST SPECTACULAR COASTAL VOYAGES

By Publisher Ray Carmen

Some of the world’s finest sailing journeys remain close to land, following coastlines shaped by mountains, glaciers, volcanoes and ancient civilisation.

Norway’s fjords offer one of the most dramatic coastal voyages. Yachts move between towering cliffs, waterfalls and quiet villages beneath vast northern skies.

Italy’s Amalfi Coast presents a different beauty. Positano, Amalfi, Ravello and the island of Capri rise above deep Mediterranean waters in a landscape of colour and history.

Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast combines hundreds of islands with medieval towns, sheltered anchorages and clear blue seas.

Along Turkey’s Turquoise Coast, sailors discover forested bays, ancient ruins and communities whose lives have been connected to the sea for generations.

Australia’s Whitsunday Islands provide access to coral reefs, tropical beaches and the extraordinary colours of the Great Barrier Reef.

Alaska’s coast is wilder. Glaciers, forests, snow-covered mountains and marine wildlife surround vessels cruising through its protected passages.

New Zealand’s coast offers enormous variety, from the Bay of Islands to the remote fjords of the South Island.

In the Caribbean, the journey past Saint Lucia’s Pitons, Dominica’s rainforest coast and the islands of the Grenadines creates an unforgettable tropical voyage.

South Africa, Chile, Greece, Montenegro and the Pacific Northwest provide equally impressive routes.

A great coastal voyage combines the freedom of the sea with the changing character of the land.

Every headland reveals another harbour, another culture and another story.
