Leda
TrainingExpedition
Step into the future of sustainable luxury with the Leda, the newest flagship of the Island Windjammers fleet and a pioneer in zero-emission maritime travel. Launching in 2027 but open for exclusive 2026 priority bookings, this 64-meter three-masted sailing yacht is redefining the Adriatic cruise experience. Built at the prestigious Brodosplit shipyard, the Leda combines the romantic silhouette of a traditional schooner with cutting-edge battery propulsion technology, allowing you to glide through the waters of Croatia and Montenegro in near-silence. With an intimate capacity of just 24 guests, the Leda offers a boutique "barefoot" adventure that skips the crowded ports of larger liners in favor of hidden coves and turquoise lagoons only accessible by small ships. On board, the Leda feels more like a private superyacht than a cruise vessel, featuring 13 elegantly appointed cabins including two palatial Grand Suites and specialized staterooms for solo travelers. Guests can spend their days lounging on the panoramic deck, soaking in the onboard hot tub, or enjoying chef-prepared meals paired with local Croatian wines. Every itinerary is guided by the "wind and whimsy" of the sea, ensuring an authentic connection to the Mediterranean landscape. Whether you are exploring the terracotta streets of Dubrovnik or the secluded bays of Hvar, the Leda provides a sophisticated, eco-conscious sanctuary for the modern explorer. Secure your place on the maiden season of the most anticipated tall ship of the decade and be among the first to experience the Leda’s silent, wind-powered magic.

Every cruise is more than a journey - it's memories that last long after you step ashore. Our participants share their stories, emotions and moments that are hard to put into words... but which we try to capture right here.
I thought it would just be a holiday. It was a journey that cleared my soul. Every sunrise on deck reminded me that you can live slower and deeper.
