Sailing Catamarans - Lagoon 380

There are many ways to explore the beauty of the Greek islands. Sailing is the best one by far. Catamarans offer a really special experience when it comes to sailing. Lagoon 380 remains the king of them, at least for me, as my bonding with it is tight. This type of catamaran is easy to sail, relatively safe for beginners and delivers a lot of fun in maneuvering.

Even if many boat models have been thrown in the market ever since the Lagoon 380 sailed for the first time, it remains the king of the kings, enjoying too many fans worldwide. Its vertical glazing design provides space optimization and it can be found with three or four rooms. The success of the specific boat type relies in the efficiency and the simplicity of the design. Its enormous windows provide natural light for the cabins and its very easy to reach the sea level from its platforms. Note that although the this model of Lagoon is ideal for non-expert skippers, it does not compromise speed for safety. With the appropriate winds and an experienced skipper, it can reach very high speeds. Its wide all around decks makes it even safer for walking around the main salon and the cabins. The interior is mostly expensive woodwork in order to make it pleasant for overnight gatherings.


Personally, I will not think much when it comes to deciding which type of catamaran I will hire. My own experience is a guide for the future as me and my family had the most memorable and unforgettable holidays on the specific boat.
