Volcanoes have left their mark everywhere here – on snow-capped Mount Teide, on black sand beaches, in rich soils and natural sea pools – yet each island is unique. Palms, pines, vineyards, and banana plantations each offer their own shade of green. On some islands you’ll see terraced farms clinging to valley walls. On others, trails trace the cliffs and reward hikers with breathtaking ocean views. And there’s always something new to do. Explore historic colonial towns, national parks, and nature reserves. Discover cuisines that reflect both mainland traditions and the islands’ distinctive culture and abundance. Shop for colorful pottery and jewelry made from lava. Listen to Canarian minstrels coax beautiful folk tunes from the tiny guitar known as a timple. Surround yourself with sunshine, sand, and the soul of a place that works its way into your heart and never lets go.
The Essence of Small Ship Sailing Wind Star is a sleek, 4-masted sailing yacht accommodating 148 guests. With four decks and a gross tonnage of 5,307, Wind Star feels like your own private small ship.
Wind Star features wide open, teak decks—quite unusual for small ships. Guests will find hidden nooks for private moments giving them a feeling of being on their own private veranda.
All staterooms have ocean views, queen beds, flat-screen TV with DVD player, and the Owner’s Suite includes a sitting area.
Wind Star offers two primary dining venues. Amphora restaurant offers gourmet, course-by-course cuisine in the evenings and Veranda restaurant offers casual buffet and full-service dining for breakfast and lunch. All dining is open seating. And, for dining under the stars, make a reservation for Candles which features steaks and skewers.
Wind Star amenities include: World Spa by Windstar, Watersports Platform, Lounge, Pool, and Hot Tub.
