6 Friends, One Yacht & an Unforgettable Mediterranean Adventure. Barcelona to the French Riviera.

6 Friends, One Yacht & an Unforgettable Mediterranean Adventure. Barcelona to the French Riviera.

Join us for Part 1 of an unforgettable Mediterranean sailing adventure as we leave Segur de Calafell, near Barcelona, and set course across the Golfe du Lion towards the stunning French Riviera.
This journey is full of firsts, including Julie and Andy’s very first overnight passage at sea. Along the way we anchor in crystal-clear bays, explore the beautiful harbour town of Cassis, visit the idyllic islands of Île des Embiez and Porquerolles, make an unexpected stop in Toulon, and experience the joys—and occasional challenges—of life aboard a yacht with four great friends.
From spectacular scenery and secluded anchorages to unforgettable moments and a few surprises along the way, this was one of our favourite adventures yet.
A huge thank you to our wonderful friends Tim and Kate for inviting us aboard their yacht, Amuse, and making this incredible journey possible.
This is Part 1 of a two-part series. In the next episode, our adventure continues as we leave the French coast behind and set sail for one of the Mediterranean’s most beautiful islands…
If you love sailing, the South of France, or are simply dreaming of your next travel adventure, we hope you’ll enjoy coming along for the journey.

We’re Andy and Julie — a couple in our 60s who have just completed an unforgettable year-long sabbatical travelling around the UK and abroad to celebrate turning 60. After over 100 videos from our “year out,” we’re now stepping into a brand-new chapter.
After returning to work, we realised how important it is to keep adventure at the heart of our lives. And now, 18 months later we are on a permanent sabbatical and ready for more adventures at home and abroad often with Teddy our BorderTerrier. Creating wealth through experiences not possessions.

On this channel, we share what life really looks like after a full career:
✨ retirement routines
✨ UK travel and mini-adventures
✨Travelling with a BorderTerrier
✨ slower living
✨ midlife and over-60 lifestyle
✨ walks, hikes, wildlife & wellbeing
✨ finding purpose and fun in the next chapter

We’d love for you to join us as we navigate this exciting stage of life — balancing work, retirement, adventure, and everything in between.
