Vessels of Reconnection
From Voyaging Canoes to Tall Ships, our Pirate Code lives not just in words, but in the ships we sail. These are not just vessels, but floating experiments in community, resilience, and reconnection.
Pira Veve, Brazil
Pira Veve means “flying fish” in Tupi-Guarani, an Indigenous language of Brazil. She is a symbol of movement between worlds, combining sailing, rowing, and surfing.
We embark on multi-day voyages that bring us into deep connection with the sea, the land, and the communities along the coast. We sleep in hammocks, forage and fish, and cook on fire.
Each voyage has only two spots.
This is rewilding for those who want the real thing.
Stripped down to the essentials.
A rite of passage.
Cala Millor, Ibiza
Cala Millor is a 42-meter wooden schooner built in 1946, the last traditional Spanish vessels of her kind.
Currently undergoing a major refit, she is set to become a flagship for the regenerative movement. She will link sail cargo routes in the Mediterranean and across the Atlantic, serve as a floating platform for art and cultural renewal and train a new generation of sailors,
Piratas do Amor supports this mission by guiding the vision, shaping crew culture, curating voyages, and linking Cala Millor into a wider network of partner ships and regenerative projects.
"These are the loveliest pirates in the seven seas! They took us out to the islands off of the dutch coast and we had a journey that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Full of openness, full of engagement, full of love. Lessons of real life at sea and at land. I hope to step aboard again in the future!
