Front-row views of every full moon
Set sail under the glow of a full moon for a magical 1.5 hour journey on the water. As the moonlight shimmers across the waves, you'll glide through the night in a peaceful, almost dreamlike atmosphere. Vela's full moon sailing experience is the perfect way to soak in the beauty of the sea after dark.
