OCEAN NOMADS EVENTS AND EXPEDITIONS
About the Ocean Nomads EVENTS & EXPEDTIONS
2-3 times a year we organize something special and rather spontaneous at sea. Ocean Nomads events and expeditions connect people to each other and to the ocean. Nothing brings people together like actually bringing people together. And nothing triggers more than actual experience. We add nature and adventure into the mix, and we have a recipe for creating a big dose of positive energy and accelerating change for a common good. We provide ocean adventure and encourage low-impact travel.
We live up to the Ocean Nomads’ slow sailing philosophy. We strive to have an onboard environment that inspires adventure and play, with a strong emphasis on health, simplicity, local, teamwork and environmental consciousness. Learn more about our trip values & expectations here.
Can’t wait? We also have lots of members with vessels who are occasionally looking for adventure crew. Or do you have a vessel and could use skilled dedicated crew? Join the family to connect with vessels, crew, and driven nomads.

Let's talk Boats
Member Initiative! Peter is hosting a walk-through and Q&A on his boat. “The long search is over and all the prep work is done. So welcome aboard S/V Linea. Log on, fill up a glass of squash (or wine) and let’s talk boats. I will happily run through why the Bavaria 430 Lagoon ticked all my boxes for bluewater cruising. And have a giggle about all the rubbish I saw out there.
