Overview

Join us in the beautiful Rodney Bay, St Lucia.  The next two days will be spent preparing you and the yacht for the adventure.  The World Arc fleet set sail on the 13th of January on the first leg of the journey – an 815NM (4-6 day) passage to Santa Marta, Columbia.   Here we have several days  to explore the area.  Hike in the Tayrona National Natural Park, visit the Tayrona Gold Museum where you journey through a world of guilded artefacts or wander round the art museum at Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino.  And if you are a coffee or chocolate lover then a trip to the mountains to visit Columbias oldest coffee farm where you could perhaps stay the night to explore the area and swim under the Marinka Waterfalls.  This to do list is endless.  On January 24th the World Arc sets sail again for the two day passage to the San Blas Islands off Panama.  This archipelago of approximately 365 islands and cays is renown for its pristine environ.  We will have several days in idyllic anchorages allowing us time to snorkel in the clear waters and lounge on the sandy beaches.  From there we make the one day passage down to Colon, the gateway to the Panama Canal.  Here we will have a few days to prepare for our transit – a transfer on many peoples bucket list.  Marvel at the engineering that took the lives of around 21,000 workers.  Once through the canal we anchor off Panama City where we will say farewell.
