The Concept: A Floating Basecamp for Your Kayak Adventures
Our Mediterranean “kayak + catamaran” trips blend the comfort of a liveaboard sailing yacht with the freedom of sea kayaking.
Aboard Colada, a Venezia 42 catamaran, we sail from anchorage to anchorage and head out daily to explore the most beautiful coastlines by kayak.
This exclusive format gives you true itinerancy with zero shore logistics: return to your cozy cabin each evening and share a convivial meal on board—your floating hotel.
The Venezia 42 Catamaran — Comfort & Autonomy at Sea
A spacious, efficient platform tailored for expedition travel:
• 4 double cabins + 2 single cabins — ideal for couples, friends or solo travelers.
• 2 indoor heads + an outdoor shower — perfect after a swim.
• Large foredeck & trampolines — space to sunbathe, read, stretch, practice yoga or shoot photos.
• Fridge + freezer for fresh produce and wholesome meals on board.
• Solar panels for silent, eco-friendly power and 220V outlets to charge cameras and phones.
• Motorized dinghy for easy beach drops and access to hidden coves.
Each night you sleep in the same cabin—but in a different setting: deserted cove, marine reserve, wild anchorage or a quaint little harbor.
A Professional Team, On Board & On the Water
Two certified pros look after you throughout the trip:
• A professional skipper (state-certified) — in charge of navigation and safety.
• A state-certified sea-kayak guide — plans routes and leads daily paddles.
This combined sailing & kayaking expertise ensures a safe, immersive and enriching experience.

Live the Mediterranean, Differently
A day’s rhythm that balances adventure and downtime:
Morning: sunrise launch and first paddle. Daytime: coves, cliffs, sea caves.
Afternoon: a sailing leg, snorkeling—or simply lazing on deck.
Evening: golden-hour aperitif, wholesome dinner on board, starry-night anchorage.
It’s a rare kind of journey—gentler, freer, more essential.
