Dear Friends of Sir Robert,

We have decided to offer our classic highlights once again in Summer 2027. We start with the Aeolian Islands, visit the Egadi Islands, offer Sardinia Pure, our classic Sardinia & Corsica, as well as Elba with Cap Corse and Provence with the Côte d’Azur.
Aufmacher 1
Spectacular Aeolian Islands in May & June: An absolute highlight! We set course for the volcanic islands around Stromboli – an extraordinary natural spectacle to be enjoyed right from the ship's deck. Also new to our programme are the Egadi Islands, hiking, e-bike adventures in nature, beaches and relaxation.

Sardinia Pure in July - emerald-green waters, authentic Sardinian lifestyle – dolce vita by the sea and so much more. And, of course, Corsica, La Beauté, the Island of Beauty, with its dream beaches, idyllic bays & wild mountain landscapes in July & August
Aufmacher 2
Elba with its diverse beaches, unspoilt nature, historic mountain villages, fortresses and old mines – small and beautiful. This is followed in August and September by a circumnavigation of Cap Corse.

Provence with the Côte d’Azur in the golden autumn, September & October – sailing along the red cliffs of the Esterel Massif, enjoying the French art de vivre, the coastline and the sea, and anchoring off St. Tropez, the Îles d’Hyères, Sanary-sur-Mer and many other beautiful places.
Aufmacher 3
Whether you would like to actively participate in setting the sails or simply relax and unwind on the spacious deck – on board the SIR ROBERT BADEN POWELL, everyone will find their own perfect spot.

Our sailing trips continue to be all about authentic, personal experiences.
Aufmacher 4
Thanks to the size of the Sir Robert, our sailing trips are also ideal for beginners. We travel sustainably, harnessing the power of the wind to explore the most beautiful coastlines in an environmentally friendly way. Smart & Small – with our small group of guests, we offer a variety of shore excursions, allowing you to discover the local people and culture along the way.

Group sailing holidays are very popular – the best allocations tend to sell out quickly. We are also currently happy to put together tailor-made group offers. And for everyone, we offer attractive early booking rates.

Early Booking Advantage: For confirmed bookings made by 11 November 2026, we offer attractive early booking discounts of 10% (DB). We are also happy to advise you personally on individual enquiries (groups, solo travellers) and offer tailored discounts.

Warm regards – The Sir Robert Team
