A Front Row Seat To the Solar Eclipse

Today, aboard a sold-out Star Pride off Iceland, guests stood on deck as the afternoon sky slid into silver, then dark. Farther south, aboard Wind Spirit in the Mediterranean, guests watched the sun thin to a crescent low over open water. The lead-up was the same on both: astronomer-led briefings on deck, eclipse glasses in every hand and a glow-in-the-dark celebration the night before.

The next total solar eclipse is already on the horizon, the last across continental Europe for decades.

On August 2, 2027, Wind Surf will be in the path of totality near Malta. For close to three minutes, our flagship sailing yacht will offer a front-row seat as the light fades and, on a clear day, stars appear overhead.

It’s the centerpiece of a 9-night roundtrip voyage from Athens. Walk the narrow lanes of Monemvasia, a medieval fortress town built into a towering rock. Trace Greek and Roman history through Syracuse, then sail into Malta’s golden capital, Valletta, and beyond.
