This is the second time I have sailed with Martin. The first time was in January 2025 in the Canary Islands and the second in June 2025 in the Aeolian Islands. In both occasions I had an amazing time. Martin is a great skipper and a fantastic host. During both sailing trips, I felt safe in his hands. He is professional and meticulous. On both trips, Martin prepared many extra activities in addition to sailing, such as visiting cities and villages, hiking and exploring cliffs, desert islands, beaches, national parks, volcanoes and mountains. These extra activities made the sailing experiences even more enriching. Furthermore, Martin always considered the wishes of his guests during the trips I took part in. On both cases, the people I sailed with were friendly and sociable and we had a very good time on and off the boat. I am very much looking forward to sailing again in the company of Martin, a person for whom I have great esteem and admiration.

I rarely leave reviews, but Martin deserves one. Really had a wonderful time with him. He is the perfect combination of professional and fun, and it doesn't hurt that he's got a good sense of humour, too. I felt safe with him at all times and I enjoyed every moment. He also let me practise skippering the boat and was always very patient when explaining. Thank you, Martin. This won't be the last time I sail with you!

Impressive tour around Aeolian Islands, with friendly and nice people. The trip organization was excellent, a perfect mix among sea, relax and nature. Our skipper, Martin, was great and very kind with us, he ensured us a safe and comfortable trip.

Martin organized the perfect sailing trip in the Aeolian islands of Sicily where we visited all (!) Aeolian islands, hiked 4 mountains incl. 2 active volcanos in a week, had amazing food on board & on land (because you can't miss it in Sicily) and had lots of fun spending time together! Martin gathered a wonderful group of people who made a great team and got very close during the week. Despite of how much we actually managed to do in a week, I never felt rushed, pushed or uncomfortable: Martin made sure all needs & desires of the crew were looked after, all decisions about our activities were discussed as a team - and we always managed to create a solution which worked well for each of us. Martin has a very special - caring & fun, but also firm & professional - style of being a captain, which I truly appreciated after sailing with various captains out there. Thanks so much to Team Spirit Sailing for the amazing week! I'll definitely be back!

Last week’s sailing adventure with Martin at Martin Sealife was nothing short of cinematic. From the very first briefing, Martin’s clarity about our voyage goals felt like the opening scene of an epic tale—but he also had this chameleon-like knack for adapting to each of us, whether we craved high-octane sailing thrills, quiet moments with a book, or impromptu siestas under the sun. Every island he steered us to was Instagram-worthy, but it was the meals that stole the show: inventive dishes that dared us to taste flavors we never knew existed. And Sicily… oh, Sicily! It’s like time stood still in the ’90s, with its laid-back hustle, architectural decay, and a soul-soothing atmosphere that wrapped around me like a warm embrace. If you’re hunting for a host who’s part captain, part gourmet chef, and 100% legend, look no further than Martin Sealife. Bravo, Martin—thank you for every unforgettable moment.
