Your guide to an authentic sailing experience in San Blas.
Welcome aboard Thyra, our beloved 39-foot sailboat that offers an unforgettable adventure in the pristine San Blas Islands. Before you set sail with us, let’s explore what life on a sailboat entails and how this unique experience stands apart from traditional tourist vacations.
A Sailboat is an Adventure, Not a Cruise
Life on Thyra is much like traveling in a motorhome—self-sufficient, eco-conscious, and adventurous.
With the ability to explore the beautiful archipelago, our boat operates using solar panels for energy and carefully conserved fresh water. The minimalist yet well-organized spaces onboard provide everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Here, you won’t find luxury hotel amenities, but instead, a genuine connection to the ocean, a serene atmosphere, and the freedom to explore a new paradise every day.
Accommodations on Thyra
Thyra features six beds, offering different accommodation options to suit every traveler:
Guests opting for the sofa bed should note that shared spaces don’t offer complete privacy, making the private cabin or even a private boat charter the ideal choice for those who prioritize privacy.
Private Cabin: A king-size bed with privacy for couples or individuals seeking a more secluded space.
Shared Space: Sofa beds or single beds in common areas, perfect for those who don’t mind a communal experience.

Physical Fitness & Safety
A stay on Thyra is moderately challenging but low-risk. Activities like transferring from a speedboat to the sailboat, stepping into the dinghy, or snorkeling require basic mobility and water confidence. While life jackets are provided, being able to float comfortably is highly recommended for all guests.
