Viking Explorers Launches Global Sailing Club
by Viking Explorers Rally 9 May 22:47 PDT
Viking Explorers, the organisation behind one of the Atlantic's most respected boutique sailing rallies, has launched the Viking Explorers Club: a year-round global membership network giving bluewater sailors exclusive discounts and trusted services at partner marinas and companies across five continents.
At a launch price of €100 per year — under €9 a month — the club is designed to pay for itself quickly. A single five-night stay at Marina of Sines, for example, saves a 42-foot monohull over €46 in berthing fees alone through the club's 20% discount. Partners already span destinations from the Canary Islands, the Caribbean, and Panama to Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, and the UAE, with new marinas, agents, and marine brands joining regularly.
"The Viking Explorers Rally has always been about more than just crossing the Atlantic," said Carlota Texeira Saavedra, co-founder of Viking Explorers. "It's about community, friendship, and helping sailors achieve their dreams. The Viking Explorers Club extends that philosophy year-round, creating a global network for sailors wherever their journeys take them."
What Members Get
Club membership provides access to:
- Exclusive discounts at 90+ partner marinas worldwide, including destinations in Europe, the Caribbean, Central and South America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania.
