tales from sea

The Questscapes crew is on an extended sailing journey that began in Spring 2024, when we set off from Juneau aboard S/V Arcturus.

Now 18,500+ nautical miles in, we’ve followed the pull of the horizon – through Alaska’s glacial fjords, the misty channels of British Columbia, down the sunburnt spine of the Pacific coast, into the Sea of Cortez, and across the vast, blue silence of the Pacific Ocean to the emerald archipelagos of French Polynesia, Tonga, Fiji, and now New Zealand.

this blog is our logbook — a collection of sea-worn reflections and stories from the shifting edge of the map. From glacial fjords to coral atolls, we share the wonder, wildness, and quiet beauty of life underway.
