About Seafarer
An independent sailing holiday specialist, founded in 1995 and still run by its founder. We are large enough to offer a great range of destinations, yet small enough to give you a truly personal service.

Over 30 years of sailing holidays
Seafarer was founded in 1995 by managing director Chris Lorenzo, who is still at the helm. Over 30 years, we have built up a wealth of experience in all things yachting, and it really does make a difference: something we think you will notice from your first enquiry through to your holiday itself.
We are a leading independent company, large enough to offer a great range of sailing destinations, yet small enough to give a truly personal, specialist service, both when you book and overseas. Being independent also means our prices are competitive and offer great value.
Ultimately, we are a company run by seafarers, for seafarers. It all adds up to the perfect holiday afloat, so plot your course for adventure and set sail with Seafarer. If you would like more information, our experienced and dedicated reservations team will be happy to help, and we look forward to welcoming you on board soon.

The Seafarer difference
What makes us special
If you don’t know us yet, or are just getting into sailing, come away with us: we’d love to welcome you into the Seafarer family.
Local knowledge
Our dedicated and professional crew are at the heart of what we do. Wherever possible, we have a mix of UK and local crew, so the local knowledge on hand is second to none. From local festivals to national holidays and history, we make sure your holiday is a rich cultural experience.
Sustainability
Like everyone in the holiday industry, and indeed worldwide, we are constantly striving to reduce our impact on the amazing places we are lucky enough to sail in. Eliminating plastics, reducing our carbon footprint and encouraging sailing over motoring are just the start of our journey. Read about our sustainability work.
Personal service
Personal service is fundamental to our philosophy. From the moment our sales team start the conversation to the final farewell in resort, we are always ready to talk, plan and tailor your holiday to you. Then, once you are in resort, our crew take the baton, tailoring your holiday to the needs of you and your party.
