Kraken Travel is a curation of hand-picked sailing adventures from trusted independent sailing operators. Each operator lists their unique ocean-going adventure for you to browse and book online – from your smart phone, tablet or desktop.

Generally, no – beginners are as welcome as experienced sailors on the majority of the trips we list. To be sure, read the description of your trip thoroughly; if particular sailing ability is required, it will be specified there.

After you return from your trip we will send you a ‘Feedback’ email that you can respond to and rate your experience. The more reviews and feedback the better in today’s sharing economy, where trust is practically a currency.
