"Stepping aboard Sea Cloud is traveling back to the golden age of private yachting. Watching the crew climb into the rigging to set 30,000 square feet of canvas sails entirely by hand is pure magic. With only 64 to 136 guests, you drop anchor in secluded Caribbean bays and historic Mediterranean ports where mega-ships can never venture."

Sea Cloud offers authentic wind-powered tall ship sailing. Rather than motoring from port to port on a strict schedule, the Captain sets the course to harness trade winds whenever possible. There are no crowds, no casino noise, and no formal lines—just an intimate private yacht atmosphere among 64 to 136 discerning guests.
All gourmet meals (breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner), all sommelier-selected house wines and beers served during lunch and dinner, welcome champagne, all watersports from the marina platform (swimming, snorkeling), and all port charges.
Sea Cloud Spirit features an elevator connecting passenger decks, making it very comfortable. Historic Sea Cloud and Sea Cloud II have traditional nautical companionway stairs, which Joe will discuss with you to match the ideal ship to your preferences.
