Discover the lively harbour of Gothenburg, where maritime heritage meets modern innovation. Visit the impressive Maritiman Museum and explore the historic Haga district with its cosy cafés. Stroll through the vibrant Feskekôrka fish market and experience the atmosphere at Lilla Bommen - perfect for culture and history lovers!

Gothenburg in the summer province of Bohuslän: the western Swedish archipelago is considered perhaps the most beautiful sea area in the Baltic Sea. The city centre of Sweden's second largest city is easy to explore on foot; numerous coffee houses invite you to linger and watch the world go by. For those interested in maritime history, it is also worth visiting the four-masted barque Viking, built in 1906; this largest windjammer built in Scandinavia is now a museum ship in the Lilla Bommen section of the harbour.

Incidentally, the hull of the Eye of the Wind lay in a shipyard in Gothenburg for a year from 1970 onwards. Some time later, work began here to convert it into the passenger ship it is today, thus giving the tall ship a "second life".

Guestbook comments

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!"

It was a fabulous week. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Here I can let go of all the tension and find myself again.

Jan Störmer

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