Two characters
Ocean islands on one side, sheltered skerries on the other. Do not book them as the same holiday.
A short season
Northern Europe is May to August. Portugal runs longer. The Azores are a weather call, not a calendar.
Serious scenery
Lofoten, Senja, the Stockholm skerries and Pico are the reason people fly this far.
An Atlantic yacht charter splits two ways. Portugal and the Azores are ocean islands with swell, volcanic harbours and fewer boats. Sweden, Norway and the Baltic are archipelago weeks: long daylight, short hops and a season that is over before you have packed the same bag twice.
Pick the country page for boats and bases. The guides cover the weather that actually stops a week, and the itineraries show a Tromsø, Stockholm, Azores or Madeira loop you can sail as written.
