Welcome aboard for an early summer sailing trip in an extraordinary sailing area. We’ll be taking a week to explore the coastal landscape and the bays around Shetland. The starting and finishing point of our journey is the island’s capital, Lerwick. In between, we’ll enjoy relaxing days at sea, fresh North Sea breezes and a varied mix of shore leave, island explorations, nature experiences and longer sailing legs by day and, weather permitting, occasionally by night too.

We are planning a visit to the neighbouring island of Fair Isle, where, under the expert guidance of a ranger, we intend to take part in a guided walk to the nesting sites of the charming puffins.

The times and ports mentioned are to be regarded as an illustrative and non-binding itinerary. The route described here may change at short notice depending on prevailing wind and weather conditions. The ship’s crew will decide on stopovers and the course of the voyage – wherever possible – whilst taking your preferences into account. This way, you will experience the cruise as a pleasant blend of adventure and comfort, of getting involved and simply enjoying yourself.
