Honeymoons
Try something
a little different on your
honeymoon...
Mediterranean moment
If you’re an adventurous couple looking for more
than just the average beach holiday,
Canary Sail
are
a sail training school based in both the Canary
Islands and
Malta that
offer a
honeymoon
with a
difference.
Find your sea
legs with a
week-long
sailing course in the subtropics alongside a
professional and personal team. Or if you just want
to sit back and enjoy the moment, take advantage
of their seven-day skippered cruise exploring the
beautiful island of Malta and its outlying islands.
Leaving from the spectacular Grand Harbour
Marina, your first day will bring you to the tiny
island of Gozo and the Blue Lagoon Bay, where you
can experience its rustic bars and quaint
restaurants. You will then head to the west coast
ports and anchorages, which are rich in history,
culture and tradition. You can swim, snorkel and
take historical tours, creating a Mediterranean
memory to cherish forever.

Italian culture. After each daily
adventure, a discussion of the day
will take place in beautiful,
historic buildings and landscapes.
It’s not all maps and backpacks
however – you will have the
evenings to dress up to the nines
and enjoy some of the finest
