Re: costs of sailing the med vs caribbean

A couple of millennia ago Mare Nostrum included North Africa. I never read about any one sailing there. A couple of reasons come to mind but I would like to hear it from those who actually sail the Med.

Re: costs of sailing the med vs caribbean

Israel, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco are cruising grounds with cheap marinas (OK, Israel not so much...). Many French go over the pond for cheap labor / maintenance / refit to Algeria.

Not so unusual as you may think.

Also some ARC crews sail down to the Canary Islands along the African coast of Morocco.

Re: costs of sailing the med vs caribbean

Bahamas are NOT in the Caribbean.
Some similarities but many differences, so the comment is a bit misleading
