Translated by Google Translate.
Life on a yacht is made of moments. It's liquefying fresh shrimps brought from the Portuguese market with lime. It's craning your head up and looking at the first stars shining through between the masts. It's racing with dolphins, swimming at arm's length just overboard. It's everything you can imagine and much, much more, because the yacht extends the horizon of dreams.
We sail all year round - to Morocco, Madeira and the Azores, along the Canary Islands. However, our sailing trips are not a luxury trip. They are an ocean adventure on which
you become part of Malaika. So we expect you to take care of yourself and others
crew members, participate in the preparation of food, keep the yacht clean and take part in watchkeeping and sailing. In return, you get one of the places on a double berth, daily meals cooked with local ingredients and countless new experiences. Remember, the more involved you are, the more enjoyable our cruise will be.
How are you going to get adventurous?

Host:
Anna i Paweł
We live on Malaika, a fifteen-meter expedition yacht. Malaika in Swahili means Guardian Angel.
We both love life on the water. The yacht gives us a sense of freedom. We travel slowly, carefully planning each trip. We choose interesting places, untrampled by tourists.
Paweł, a film producer by profession, has over 40 years of experience in sea and ocean sailing, he sailed for seven years as a co-skipper in the waters of Antarctica, South Georgia and Patagonia. I have been a sailor for over 20 years on inland and sea waters. After many years spent in corporations, I realize dreams that have accompanied me since childhood - I explore the world by sailing, sometimes also by running.
We live on the yacht ecologically, in harmony with nature. Limited space forces us to have things that are really necessary. We produce as little waste as possible, they also take up space. We eat delicious and healthy. We buy our products at local markets full of fresh vegetables, fruits, spices, cheeses and pastries. Every shopping trip is a small event: new flavors and smells, morning coffee and chats.
Paweł and I share the greatest passion - Malaika's journey through life!

Meet our home - Expedition Yacht Malaika with a length of 50 feet (approx. 15 meters). It is the heart of all expeditions, a ticket to freedom and a safe haven, swaying quietly in the marina. There is room for 6 people on board, including our 2-man crew. The remaining four places on two 2-person berths are dedicated to you. Malaika has a comfortable wardroom (table), a well-equipped galley (kitchenette), a bathroom with a full-size shower and a second toilet. On-board internet is available, although not in all places where we sail. So in four words: a real home on the ocean!
The yacht gives us the opportunity to live ecologically, respecting nature. Limited space forces you to have things that are really necessary for life. All cleaning agents are eco-certified. Garbage? At least - they also take up space.
By reserving a berth, you become part of our common adventure. The price includes the care of experienced skippers, a set of bedding (sheet, down pillow, down quilt, pillowcase) and towels, three meals a day on the yacht, yacht insurance against accidents on the water, introduction to the basics of sailing and personal safety measures. The equipment and construction of the yacht meet all the conditions of CEproof Category A. In land language, this means that the yacht is adapted to sailing without restrictions as to the water area and weather conditions around the world.
Dates of planned expeditions can be found in the category I won't be bored.

The Malaiko galley has a four-burner gas cooker, an oven and two refrigerators. We buy food at local bazaars, looking for the most delicious. These are countless amounts of fresh vegetables, fruits, spices, local cheeses, seafood and pastries. The price of the trip includes three daily meals, in which the entire crew participates in the preparation and cleaning. Meals on land are left to you and your pocket.
Every shopping trip is a small event: conversations with familiar sellers, trying new things, morning coffee and chatting in supermarket booths.

We travel slowly, carefully planning each trip. We choose interesting places, untrampled by tourists. We admire the stars on El Hierro, wander through the laurel forests of La Gomera, conquer Pico in the Azores, listen to cagarros singing at night, look for dolphins and whales somewhere in the ocean. The yacht gives you the freedom to travel, so anything can happen during the trip.
Sailing between islands in different archipelagos allows us to make simple changes
routes depending on the weather. While staying in the port, everyone can do what they want: rent a car, bike, scooter, go trekking or just lie on the pier. We adjust the route of the cruise on an ongoing basis, always taking into account the weather conditions. It is supposed to be safe, intriguing and comfortable.
