- Hi all, I'm SUPER EXCITED to announce that I'll be an expert for an upcoming adventure: SAILING THE SKEPTICAL SEAS from April 18-24th. The journey starts in Malaga, Spain and ends in Nice, France with stops at fab Mediterranean locales such as Valencia, Palma de Mallorca, Menorca, and Corsica.
- This is a unique opportunity as it's my first time as an expert on such a trip for the general public. I'll be giving talks on the real local archaeology (prehistoric megaliths, Carthaginian colonies, Roman cities, and Medieval castles), and discussions of fake archaeology: Atlantis etc
- There's plenty of archaeology, history, and natural beauty to soak up. This unique expedition takes place on the largest, fully-rigged sailing vessel in the world: The Royal Clipper. If you join, you'll have a chance to steer the ship, climb the ratlines, and hang out in the crow's nest.
- The trip will be run by Skeptoid and @briandunning.bsky.social. Full info and sign ups for the trip is here: skeptoid.com/events/30315. If you've got other questions, just ask! Make sure to sign up ASAP, by January 10th, as the ship always sells out, and some cabins are already sold out.
- Note, since a couple asked, "Tickets include all meals on the ship, plus beer or wine with dinner."Dec 27, 2025 23:36
