Great advice so far, Wales doesn't have quite as much to offer as a cruising ground, but Ireland and Scotland (west coast and islands) are fantastic. Take your walking boots you'll want to do some hiking!

For your return trip it is often better to leave on the return leg from the Canaries in January/Feb I've done it twice at this sort of time and the trades are more consistent.

Hi Phantom,
you'll be hitting the Azores first I take it or are you making the full run to Ireland first, your best target in Ireland's south west part would have to be Dingle in county Kerry, it has full marina facilities and breath taking scenery, I can guarantee you will never see a shade of green like this before in your life. I you want the grand tour of Ireland and where the best spots are keep in touch I'll steer you in the right direction.

Frank
