Trip information

This Baltic Sea trip begins in the port city of Gdańsk. At a leisurely cruising speed, we leave Gdańsk Bay and set course for the Danish island of Bornholm. Depending on the itinerary and wind direction, optional stopovers with shore leave are possible, for example in the Swedish port of Ystad, in the traditional sailing town of Greifswald, or in Sassnitz on Rügen. The journey ends in the southern Arkona Sea, with our destination port being the beautiful Hanseatic city of Stralsund. Sailing experiences, relaxation and nature impressions off the coasts of the Polish, Swedish and German Baltic Sea region: the vastness of the sea and the gentle sound of the waves against the hull are the best ingredients for a relaxing holiday experience!

This is where you board

Gdańsk

As a lively harbour city on the Baltic Sea, Gdańsk offers many maritime sights. A guided tour of the European Solidarity Centre with a view of the shipyard site, a walk along the Gdańsk Marina, a harbour cruise on the Motława River and an excursion to Westerplatte, where historic fortifications are a reminder of maritime history, are well worth a short visit.

Gdańsk on the Baltic Sea looks back on an eventful history between Poland, Prussia and as a free city. The rich Hanseatic metropolis was one of the most important centres of Baltic trade and famous for its grain and amber exports. The centre is the Long Market with the Town Hall and the famous Neptune Fountain. Magnificent town houses line Langgasse, and the Golden Gate marks the historic entrance. The monumental St. Mary's Church, one of the largest brick churches in the world, is definitely worth seeing, with a view from the tower. The medieval Crane Gate, the city's landmark, stands on the banks of the Motława River. A short detour takes you to the European Solidarity Centre on the historic shipyard site, which documents Gdańsk's role in the Polish freedom movement.

This is where you disembark

Stralsund

The historic Hanseatic city on the Strelasund impresses with its UNESCO Old Town, Gothic brick churches, town hall, harbour, German Maritime Museum and historic St. John's Monastery. Visitors enjoy the maritime atmosphere, museums, city walls and the Rügen Bridge as the gateway to the island of Rügen.

The picturesque town centre with its brick Gothic buildings is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Ozeaneum at the harbour sees itself as a declaration of love to the oceans, with 45 aquariums, some of them huge, an underwater journey through the northern seas, life-size replicas of whales and a penguin enclosure on the roof terrace. The modern architecture is reminiscent of sails billowing in the wind. Within sight of the Ozeaneum is a special maritime monument: the barque Gorch Fock (I), an identical sister ship to the German Navy's training ship.

The well-maintained tradition of beer brewing is kept alive at the Störtebeker Brewery. Our tip: round off your shore leave with a tour of the brewery.

Sailing like 100 years ago! A dream come true!

Members of the youth department of the Merching Sailing Association

Seeing this magnificent sailing ship glide through the waves powered only by the wind is an indescribable feeling. There is nothing more beautiful.

Ulf Kaack
Fellow sailor and author of maritime books, about his trip in the Western Baltic Sea

I can highly recommend a sailing trip on the Eye of the Wind. This is a sailing ship straight out of a picture book, and the crew is in a great mood. You may climb to the top of the mast – 27 metres above sea level. Fabulous!"
