Unsettled Sailing: Ibiza

We set sail from Palma, Mallorca, the largest city and airport in the Balearic Islands. Our base is centrally located in Palma, so you can come early or stay late.

It varies each day. The actual sailing time is typically 3-6 hours per day, so come prepared to be involved! We sleep at anchor, on the boats, each night, usually 100 meters or so from shore. There's plenty of time for swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing on the beach in between sailing.

No! Most participants do not have any sailing experience, and many get to learn on the trip as it is a very hands-on experience!

You will need to fly in/out of Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), which is only a 15-minute drive to our base. We recommend you arrive no later than 3 pm on Saturday, June 3. You can depart anytime on Saturday, June 10th.

We anchor the boats in the calmest coves we can find. We anchor before sunset so we can relax, debrief, enjoy a happy hour toast, cook, and eat dinner. We plan 2-3 "party nights" where we can let loose and have fun, and on other nights we have family-style meals, star gaze, and sip our favorite drinks in paradise.

Most people on an Unsettled retreat are professionals who are emotionally intelligent, have many hobbies, and are curious and passionate about life. This isn't a post-college party trip. Our average age of participants is mid 30's to mid 40's, but we've hosted folks of all ages. Living Unsettled is truly ageless.

We've hosted CEOs and entrepreneurs, artists and experience designers, and people who are active, even experts, in everything from transcendental meditation to CrossFit, from Bikram yoga to kiteboarding, and from diving to flying. On any given day, however, most of us are content hanging out with each other, exploring new places and trying new things.

Since thinking big about our work and careers is one of the organizing principles of Unsettled, many participants are high achievers who organize major conferences, run businesses, or are even recognized experts in their field. We have a lot of designers, developers, entrepreneurs, and startup enthusiasts on our trips.

All of this being said, it's not required to be working on something or have a "professional CV" in order live Unsettled with us. Many joining us are retired, taking a sabbatical, or deciding what comes next in life and looking for some inspiration.

At Unsettled, we truly focus on building retreats full of dynamic people who have much more to offer to the group than just work experience. These experiences are social by definition, and so one of our main qualifications is to look for people who share some simple principles:

• Open to spending time with people from different cultures with different value sets
• Curious about the people and the world around them
• Considerate of others
• Basically, as long as you're not an asshole, you'll fit right in.

We have an award-winning Spanish chef planning our meals on this trip. Included are 6 breakfasts, 5 lunches, and 3 dinners on the boat. Additional lunches and dinners can be purchased onshore and/or organized by your boat. Each boat organizes and purchases your beverages for the week  before we leave port in Palma, as they're not included.

The boundaries between work, life, and travel are becoming blurred, fundamentally changing how we live today. Unsettled brings together groups of travelers and professionals from around the world for uniquely co-created experiences. Each one-week, two-week, or one month retreat is designed to break your routine and inspire a renewed sense of growth, meaning and adventure through transformational travel and peer-to-peer learning.

Whether you're working full time, or going through an intentional career transition, our retreats are designed to help you break out of your routine and explore a new destination with an incredible group of peers.
