Creative Sea Charters

~ Where Every Sail is a Story ~

Our Mission

Creative Sea Charters designs unique writing voyages to inspire engaging stories, authentic experiences, and meaningful connections. As we learn to navigate the seas and slow down to the rhythm of paradise, you’ll find yourself becoming more confident in your abilities to chart your own course both on and off the page.

Embracing Meraki

At Creative Sea Charters we sail every voyage and craft every story with Meraki. Of Greek origin, Meraki means

 ~ to do something with total love, and pure soul. It is leaving a little piece of yourself in your creative work. ~

We strive to embody this beautiful sentiment and invite you to join us on the trip of a lifetime.
