Discover Cape Verde, 600 km off the African coast at Atlantic, from the sea: Mindelo on São Vicente, the cultural capital of Cape Verde, with old trading houses, cafés, guitar workshops and music pubs. The largely undiscovered São Nicolau with its untouched mountain landscape and the historic small island capital of Vila Ribeira Brava. The sandy islands of Boa Vista and Sal offer a contrast to the mountainous volcanic islands. And Santo Antão, probably the most spectacular island in the archipelago and the highlight of any trip to Cape Verde. The region has a tropical climate with an air temperature of 23° to 28° and a constant water temperature of around 25°, as well as a trade wind that can be strong all year round. Ideal sailing conditions and one of our declared favorite areas. There will be a tour guide on board to introduce you to the region, accompany you on shore excursions and answer any questions you may have.

Sailing on the Atlantic is usually associated with the trade winds, which blow constantly in many parts. The weather can vary on long crossings, from calm conditions to heavy seas, and the influences of the Gulf Stream and crossing cold fronts require special attention. Up-to-date weather information is crucial for navigating through the various conditions in the Atlantic.
CHRONOS is the almost identical sister ship of the RHEA and sails mainly in the western Mediterranean on the Côte d’Azur and Italy, as well as in the Caribbean islands of the Grenadines and Antigua.
