About Wind Star
Wind Star is a compact, four-masted sailing yacht carrying up to 148 guests. Its intimate scale, broad teak decks and working sails create a private-yacht atmosphere, while ocean-view accommodations, open-seating dining and a watersports platform support relaxed, informal cruising. The ship is particularly suited to travelers who value access to smaller ports, convivial onboard spaces and an active connection with the sea rather than large-ship attractions.
