Autumn Atlantic Challenge 2026
Ibiza - Gibraltar - Tenerife, Spain
Salt spray, full sails, flying fish and the open ocean around are your companions in the autumn offshore crossing "Atlantic Challenge" 2023!
As the heat of the Ibiza summer fades, the Sailme Charter fleet begins its annual journey to our winter home in the Canary Islands.
Spanning 1,500 nautical miles, this passage is a significant milestone. For those used to coastal hops and quiet bays, this is the perfect opportunity to level up. Whether you are an aspiring skipper looking for miles or an adventurer seeking the rhythm of the open sea, this transition is where true sailors are made.
The Bareboat Offer: Captain Your Own Adventure
Are you a skipper? Rent the entire boat for your own crew! This is the ultimate way to gain offshore experience and log serious miles. You can find the rates for the full yacht in the final column of our price list
Cabin Charter: Join Our Crew
For solo travelers or small groups, we offer cabin charters with our professional skippers. To make the 1,500-mile journey more accessible, we’ve divided the voyage into two distinct legs:
Start – Port Ibiza, island of Ibiza. We gather on the pontoon on Saturday at 17:00, get acquainted with other participants, go through briefings and make purchases of provisions for the transition. We usually leave the marina the next morning. Our route passes through the island of Formentera, and further along the Spanish coast, cities such as Cartagena, Almeria, Malaga, where we can make stops. The finish of this stage is on the border of Gibraltar in the Spanish city of La Linea.
Start - Marina Port Alcaidesa in La Linea (the nearest airport is Malaga (AGP). Depending on the weather, the route will go through Madeira or Lanzarote, or maybe we will look into continental Portugal. We can stop for a couple of days to rest and explore local attractions. Finish in our winter base in Tenerife, Marina San Miguel. The nearest airport - Tenerife South (TFS).
