French Guiana turned out to be one of the most challenging and surprising stops of our world circumnavigation. What should have been a simple arrival quickly became an anchoring nightmare. Strong currents, muddy bottoms, and difficult conditions forced us to anchor multiple times before finally finding a spot that would hold. It's easy to understand why many cruisers skip French Guiana altogether. But despite the challenges, this unique overseas territory of France has plenty to offer. During our visit, we explored the incredible Guiana Space Center (Centre Spatial Guyanais), Europe's gateway to space and home to some of the world's most important rocket launches. In this episode: ⛵ Our difficult arrival and repeated anchoring attempts 🌊 The challenges of cruising in French Guiana 🇬🇫 Why so few sailors visit this fascinating destination 🚀 A tour of the famous Guiana Space Center 📍 Our impressions of one of the least-visited cruising destinations in the region Have you ever sailed to French Guiana or considered adding it to your cruising route?

We set sail from Recife, Brazil expecting a straightforward 1,200 nautical mile passage… but the ocean had other plans. What should have been an “easy” leg quickly turned into our most disastrous passage yet. From equipment failures to relentless storms, it felt like everything that could go wrong did. Rob battles through a painful kidney stone while Shannon is knocked out by a debilitating migraine — all while we face four straight days of intense, punishing weather. This journey pushed us to our limits in ways we never expected. 🌊 Raw. Real. Unfiltered life at sea. ⚓ When the adventure turns into survival.

#sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat Things Escalated Quickly in the Namib Desert…(and an unexpected visitor) This might be our funniest episode yet! In this episode we explore the incredible coastal town of Walvis Bay, Namibia, where adventure meets wildlife and unforgettable moments. We kick things off with pure adrenaline as we sandboard and quad bike down the massive Dune 7, one of the tallest dunes in the region. The speed, the wipeouts, and the laughs make this one of the most fun days we’ve had on our journey! Next, we visit Namibia’s famous Walvis Bay Pink Lake, a surreal bright-pink lagoon that looks like something from another planet. From there we head to the charming coastal town of Swakopmund for more exploration along Namibia’s rugged Skeleton Coast. But the real star of the episode? A baby seal decides to hop onto the back of our catamaran and make it his temporary home! Watching him play and relax onboard was an unforgettable wildlife moment we’ll never forget. As our time in Namibia comes to an end, we also begin the final preparations for our big sailing passage across the Atlantic Ocean.

#sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat From Ocean to Desert: Sailing Namibia Lüderitz to Walvis Bay We arrive by sailboat in Lüderitz, Namibia and show the marina check-in process, including what it costs and what sailors can expect when clearing in at this remote and historic port on Namibia’s wild Atlantic coast. While in town, we visit the Namibia Maritime Museum, the only maritime museum in Africa, filled with incredible shipwreck history, navigation artifacts, and stories from Namibia’s rugged coastline. After exploring Lüderitz, we set sail on a 3-day offshore passage to Walvis Bay, sharing what life is really like living on a sailboat during a multi-day passage. Shannon also shows her boat life self-care routine, including microneedling her face while living aboard — because even sailors need skincare at sea! Our passage ends with an unforgettable arrival into Walvis Bay, Namibia, where we’re welcomed by amazing Namibian wildlife. Curious seals swim around the boat and pelicans soar overhead as we enter the bay after days offshore.

This week we leave the comfort of our Leopard catamaran behind and trade the open ocean for the wild heart of Africa 🌍🐘 (Yes — even a leopard sighting was part of this unforgettable adventure!) With fairly low expectations, our travel family set off on a true bucket-list experience: a safari at Hluhluwe–Umfolozi Game Reserve… and wow, were we blown away. Thanks to our incredible tour drivers, packed with knowledge and stories, the bush came alive right before our eyes. Against all odds, we saw all of the Big 5, including a jaw-dropping encounter with an elusive lion that hadn’t been spotted in the park for over two weeks 🦁. And just when we thought it couldn’t get better, over 50 elephants crossed directly in front of our vehicle, stopping us in our tracks and leaving us completely speechless. From boat life to the African bush, this travel vlog captures the suspense, the wildlife, and the unforgettable moments that made this safari a massive highlight for our family. If you’ve ever wondered what really happens on a safari, don’t miss this action-packed episode — it’s one for the memory books!

#sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat Unexpected Welcome & Sudden Exit | Boat Life in South Africa After 14 LONG days at sea, our sailing family finally made landfall in Richards Bay, South Africa — a huge milestone in our sailing around the world journey and ongoing circumnavigation. We were welcomed with open arms by the incredibly friendly Zululand Yacht Club, quickly feeling at home in the South African boat life. Our 28hrs ashore couldn’t have been better: a traditional South African braai, shared with fellow cruisers, travel stories, and the kind of community that makes sailing and travel so special. Just as we were settling in, things took an unexpected turn… we were asked to leave the marina, cutting our stay short and adding tension to our adventure. With little time to plan, we set sail for Durban in the dark, raising the question many sailors and travelers ask: Is South Africa really dangerous? This episode is full of firsts — our first Uber ride, exploring life ashore, and an unforgettable dinner at the Royal Natal Yacht Club alongside the Mini Globe Race sailors, reminding us why we love this lifestyle.

#sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat When the Ocean Tests EVERYTHING - Sailing Mauritius to South Africa From the turquoise calm of Mauritius to the wild edge of South Africa, this passage tested everything we thought we knew about offshore sailing. Join our sailing family as we push our 2018 Leopard sailing catamaran through 48+ hours of rough seas, relentless night watches, and howling winds up to 38 knots on a true passage making adventure to Richards Bay. With fishing buoys lurking in the dark, cargo ships everywhere, and a torn sail bag adding extra tension, every mile demanded focus and teamwork. Between the squalls and the stress, the ocean still delivered its magic—two fish landed, whales surfacing alongside us, and unforgettable moments that remind us why we chose bluewater cruising as a way of life. This is raw, real travel family sailing, where learning never stops and worldschooling happens one wave at a time. If you love offshore passages, real-life challenges at sea, and honest family adventures on the open ocean, this one’s for you.
