About Wind Surf

Wind Surf was built at Le Havre in France as Club Med 1 for Club Med, which sold her to Windstar Cruises in 1997; she has sailed as Wind Surf since 1998. The 14,745 GT ship is 187 metres long including her bowsprit, with 171 cabins for 342 guests. A November 2019 dry dock at Navantia in Cádiz added new suites and upgraded her public spaces and spa, and a refit there in late 2024 remodelled her top suites and refreshed Amphora, Compass Rose, the lobby and the pool deck.
